I'm feeling pretty uneasy right now. I've got this sudden, sharp pain in my upper chest and the left side. It really hurts when I take a deep breath. I've taken a painkiller and applied some Volini gel, which has helped a bit, but I'm still worried. What do you think this could be?

View allI've been dealing with high blood pressure for about 20 years now, and despite taking medications like atorvastatin, aspirin, hydralazine, and amlodipine, it doesn't seem to be improving. I'm really worried and wondering if there's anything else I should be doing or trying. Any advice?

I'm a bit concerned about my dad's blood pressure readings. He's 61 and has high blood pressure, so he's been on medication. Recently, during a check-up, his readings were 90 and 126. But here's the thing thats puzzling me his blood pressure was higher in his right arm than his left by about 10 points. I'm really curious about what could cause this difference. Is it something we should be worried about?
This difference in blood pressure between arms is known as inter-arm blood pressure difference. It can be caused by various factors such as differences in blood vessel stiffness, blockages, or narrowing in the arteries of one arm compared to the other. It can also be due to conditions like atherosclerosis or peripheral artery disease. To address this issue, it is important to consult with your father's healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In terms of medication, he can continue taking his high blood pressure medication such as Losartan 50mg once daily to help control his blood pressure levels.

I'm 25 and dealing with prehypertension. My blood pressure is at 14090. I've had tests done and everything seems normal, like my lipid profile, liver function, and kidney function test. I've been eating mostly green veggies and getting some exercise every morning, but I still can't seem to get my blood pressure under control. Do you think I should consider medication?
Since your blood pressure is not controlled despite lifestyle changes, medication may be necessary to help manage your pre-hypertension. I recommend starting with a low-dose of a medication like Losartan (brand name: Cozaar) 25mg once daily. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider to adjust the dosage if needed.
