View allI'm really worried because my HDL is 38, and I've heard that kind of level can lead to heart disease. I'm feeling pretty scared about it and could really use some guidance. What can I do to improve it?
To improve your HDL level, you can make lifestyle changes such as: - Engaging in regular physical activity - Eating a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats - Quitting smoking if you smoke - Limiting alcohol intake In addition to lifestyle changes, your doctor may also prescribe medications to help increase your HDL level. One such medication is Niacin (Vitamin B3), which can help raise HDL levels. The typical dosage for Niacin is 500-2000 mg per day, but it is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage. Remember to consult your healthcare provider before starting any new medication or making significant lifestyle changes.

I'm feeling some pain in my left chest, right where the ribs are, just under the man breast. It gets more painful when I press that spot, but I don't have any issues with breathing. My cholesterol was borderline high in my recent health check-up, but my Echo 2D was normal about 20 days ago. The pain level is pretty low, like a 1 out of 10, but I'm just a bit worried about why it's happening. Should I be concerned? Any insights would be really helpful.
Normal, nothing to worry ok.
