Question

I'm worried about my husband because his heart pulse rate seems pretty lowaround 53and his blood pressure is about 115 over 72. It's been like this for the past 10 to 15 years. He doesn't show any symptoms and can do physical activities without issues. Is this low blood pressure and low heart pulse rate normal, or should we be concerned? What could be causing this, and what steps should we take?

A low heart pulse rate (bradycardia) and low blood pressure can sometimes be normal for some individuals, especially if they are asymptomatic and have no underlying health conditions. However, it is important to monitor these values regularly and consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation. If there are no symptoms or issues with daily activities, treatment may not be necessary. If there are concerns about the low heart pulse rate and blood pressure, further investigations may be needed to determine the underlying cause. It is recommended to consult with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation, which may include tests such as an ECG, Holter monitor, or echocardiogram. Treatment, if necessary, will depend on the underlying cause identified during the evaluation.
