I'm feeling a little concerned because I've noticed a pulsing sensation on the right side of my neck. It's like I can actually see the pulse, and I think it might be from my carotid artery. It's only happening on the right side. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

Feeling a pulsing sensation in the right side of your neck, particularly if it corresponds with the carotid pulse, can be due to several reasons. It might simply be your normal carotid artery pulse, which can sometimes become more noticeable due to factors like anxiety, increased heart rate, or hypertension. However, if the pulsing is new, pronounced, or accompanied by other symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, or visual changes, it could indicate an underlying vascular or cardiac condition that requires evaluation. It would be prudent to consult your healthcare provider for a thorough assessment to rule out conditions such as carotid artery disease or other vascular abnormalities.

View allI'm feeling really anxious because I experienced this sharp pain in my left chest that lasted for about 5-10 seconds. Along with that, there's this heaviness in my chest that's been bothering me. I just got my ECG results, and it mentioned an 800 sinus rhythm and a 401 short PR interval. Could you help me understand what these results might mean? Should I be worried about this?
While the sinus rhythm on your ECG is normal, the short PR interval requires further investigation to determine the underlying cause. The symptoms of chest pain and heaviness are concerning and should be evaluated by a healthcare provider right away. Please do not delay in seeking medical attention to ensure that any potential issues, including heart-related conditions, are addressed promptly.

My mom had an angioplasty about 36 hours ago with two stents placed because her artery was fully blocked. Now she's in the ICU and her heart rate is pretty high, like around 152 bpm, and it's averaging about 125 bpm. Plus, she's had low blood pressure a few times. Is this something we should be worried about? Could these be signs of any complications? Would really appreciate your advice.
The low blood pressure could be a result of reduced heart function or other factors. To address the high heart rate, a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol can be prescribed to help lower the heart rate. It is important to consult a cardiologist to assess her cardiac function in detail.

I've noticed that whenever I eat food or refined oil, my blood pressure rises, and I feel this intense warmth inside my body. Plus, my hand nerves start beating at 100 beats per minute. Is this normal, or should I be worried about something more serious?
It could be a sign of a possible food sensitivity or intolerance. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with your doctor for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try to avoid foods that trigger these symptoms and consider taking medication.
