View allI'm a bit concerned about my BP readings. It was 10866 recently, but before that, it was 9363. Should I be worried about this change, or is it normal? Do you think I need to see a doctor? Please let me know what you think!
-A blood pressure reading of 10866 is considered within the normal range, though it's slightly higher than your previous reading of 9363. It seems like a healthy change, but if you're feeling any symptoms like dizziness or weakness, its worth consult

I'm wondering if you can help me out. I was stretching my neck and suddenly felt a squeezing sensation in my upper chest. Now, I'm noticing a bit of pain in my chest whenever I stretch or do activities that involve my chest. My breathing seems fine, though. Should I be concerned about this chest pain, or is it something that might go away on its own? Looking forward to your advice.

I'm experiencing this chest heaviness and heavy breathing whenever I walk or do any small physical activities, and it's been going on for about three weeks now. I already went to my GP about two weeks ago and was on Azithromycin for three days, but it didnt really help. Yesterday, I started feeling some chest pain right in the center, and when I consulted a cardiologist online, they said it wasn't cardiac pain. But this morning after a little activity post-breakfast, I felt the same heaviness and then a dull pain in the center of my chest. It only lasts about 2 seconds and then disappears for a minute. The pain doesn't get worse when I breathe deeply either. Just wondering what's going on and what I should do next. Any thoughts?
