I'm 28 and I've been smoking for the last 10 years. Lately, I've been feeling some sharp pain in my chest, and it's starting to worry me. Could this be related to my smoking? What steps can I take to manage or understand what's happening? Would appreciate any advice or suggestions.

Question

I've been experiencing chest pain and headaches lately. I got an ECG done, and it came back normal, but I still don't feel right. I'm having trouble eating and walking properly too. Recently, I had milk and curd together, and I'm wondering if that could be causing these issues. Could you suggest any remedies or possible causes?

Question

How serious is this situation? What actions should I be taking? Are lifestyle changes and exercise enough to handle it?

Question

I'm monitoring my blood pressure with an Omron machine, and it reads 100140, but my pulse is normal. I heard that blood pressure can stay high in winter. Should I think about consulting a doctor for this?
