I recently underwent a lipid profile test, and my bad cholesterol (LDL) count was quite high. Which specialist should I consult for evaluation and treatment? I have attached my test report for your reference.

Dear sir, my lab report from health check up shows C reactive protein 9.95 with standard 3.0, lipoprotein 64 with standard 30, and lipid profile LDL 121 with standard 100. Please suggest the reason and medication? Thank you.

I am having frequent urination. Sometime back, there was itching on my arms and redness, which gets relieved automatically after 1 to 2 hours. I went for a blood checkup and received my report. It shows high LDL and triglycerides, and low HDL. I am doing exercise regularly for half an hour. I need suggestions? My HDL cholesterol is 27.7 mg/dl, LDL/HDL ratio is 3.6, and serum albumin is 4.84 g/dl. The rest of the parameters are in the attached picture.

Sir, my LDL is 100, HDL 35, and total cholesterol around 132 (I have lost the report). Are these values healthy, or should I be concerned about them? Please advise.
