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 really worried about my 30-year-old son. He's been diagnosed with grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, and I know his systolic function is at 68. His blood pressure is around 13090, and thankfully, he doesn't have diabetes or thyroid issues. I'm just trying to understand how we can manage or improve his diastolic dysfunction. What can we do for him?
normal,salt restricted diet and dash diet advised..

I've been dealing with this dull pain for about four months now, and I'm really starting to worry. I don't have any other symptoms like shortness of breath or anything, but I'm concerned it might be heart-related. Could this kind of pain without those typical symptoms still be linked to a heart issue?
Dull pain lasting for 4 months can be concerning, especially if it is located in the chest area. While chest pain can be a symptom of heart problems, it is not always the case. Other conditions such as muscle strain, acid reflux, or anxiety can also cause chest pain. Since you do not have any other symptoms like shortness of breath, it is less likely to be related to the heart. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for temporary relief.
