Is coffee good for high blood pressure?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Research indicates that coffee may lead to short-term increases in blood pressure. However, no long-term associations with increases in blood pressure or risk of heart disease have been found in people who drink it regularly. Rather, coffee may promote heart health due to its high antioxidant content.

View allI'm really concerned about my dad. He's dealing with heart issues and fluid retention, and while he's on the right meds and treatments, he still seems to lose energy often and can't do his usual daily stuff. Is this kind of fatigue normal for someone in his condition, or could there be a particular reason behind it? I'm also curious if there's any surgical option that might help his situation. What do you think?

I've been having this back pain that shoots down to my hands and chest. I had a TMT done on 20th February 2022, and it came out negative. But I'm worried because I'm feeling the pain again today, and my doctor advised an ECG. If my TMT was normal, do I really need to get an ECG every single time this pain hits?
If you have already undergone a TMT which was normal, and you are experiencing chest pain again, it is still important to have an ECG done to check for any acute changes in your heart's electrical activity. It is not necessary to have an ECG done every time you have pain, but if the pain is severe or persistent, it is advisable to seek medical attention and follow your doctor's recommendations.
