I'm experiencing some pain under my left collarbone since this evening. I've been dealing with acid reflux and started taking a proton pump inhibitor since Sunday. That day, I felt chills in my arms and chest, and my doctor said it might be anxiety and gave me a prescription for an antidepressant, but I'm not taking it yet. I had an ECG done on Sunday as well, and I'll include the report with my question. Also, I've got a cholesterol level of 124. Should I be concerned about this pain?

High blood pressure can be caused by various factors such as stress, unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and genetics. To reduce high blood pressure naturally, you can try the following. Maintain a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Limit your salt intake. Engage in regular physical activity such as brisk walking, jogging, or swimming. Manage stress through techniques like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises. Limit alcohol consumption and quit smoking. Ensure an adequate amount of quality sleep. Consider incorporating foods rich in potassium, magnesium, and calcium into your diet. If these lifestyle changes do not effectively lower your blood pressure, you may need medication.
