I'm 25 and my blood pressure was 160100. Should I be worried about this? I spoke to a doctor and got prescribed Ciplar 40 for a month. Now my BP's gone down to 13090. What should I do next?

View allI'm really concerned about my blood pressure. I take Telma 20 every day, but it's still high at 150100. If I eat out, it shoots up to around 170110. What can I do to bring it down to normal levels?
Increasing Height After 24 _Genetic Limitations_ 1. _Height determined by genetics_: Height is largely determined by genetics, making it challenging to significantly increase height after a certain age. 2. _Growth plates closure_: Growth plates in the bones typically close by the early 20s, limiting further growth. _Exercise and Healthy Alternatives_ 1. _Stretching and exercise_: Certain exercises, like yoga, Pilates, or stretching, can help improve posture, making you appear taller. 2. _Hanging exercises_: Hanging exercises, like pull-ups or hanging leg raises, can help stretch the spine, potentially increasing height by a small amount (0.5-1 inch). 3. _Good posture and core strength_: Maintaining good posture and core strength can also help you appear taller. _Supplements and Alternative Methods_ 1. _No proven supplements_: There are no scientifically proven supplements that can significantly increase height after 24. 2. _Avoid unproven methods_: Be cautious of unproven methods, like height-increasing pills or devices, as they may be ineffective or even harmful. _Realistic Expectations_ 1. _Small increases possible_: While it's unlikely to increase height by 2-4 inches, you may be able to achieve a small increase (0.5-1 inch) through exercise and good posture. 2. _Focus on overall health_: Prioritize overall health and wellness, rather than focusing solely on increasing height.

I've been having chest pain and got a 2D echo, ECG, blood work, and an X-ray done. The doctor said everything looks normal, but I noticed some black marks on the left side of the diaphragm in the X-ray. Could you tell me what these might be? I'm a bit concerned.
Diaphragmatic tumour,hernia,birth trauma ,surgical trauma ,thyroid disease and auto-immune disease are some of the causes..A dermatologist opinion is advised.
