I can see my pulse visibly pulsating right below my thumb. It doesn't hurt or anything, but it sure looks odd. I don't remember seeing it there before, or maybe I just never noticed it. Should I be worried or is this normal?

View allI'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. I recently went to the doctor, and they found it was 130100. I'm 28 years old, and when the doctor asked about my family history, I mentioned that my dad has high blood pressure but it's quite rare. The doctor didn't prescribe anything right now, just said to check it again in a month. I'm currently on antibiotics for a sore throat. Are there any tips you could give me to help manage or cure this?
Maintain a healthy weight through regular exercise and a balanced diet. Reduce sodium intake in your diet. Increase potassium-rich foods such as bananas, oranges, and potatoes. Limit alcohol consumption. Manage stress through relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation. Get an adequate amount of quality sleep each night. Avoid smoking and limit caffeine intake. If after a month your blood pressure remains high, you may need medication to help control it. It's important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

Could you advise me on whether it's safe to discontinue one, and if so, which one would be better to avoid? I'm a bit worried about having to take both medications and would appreciate your guidance on this.
