I'm kinda confused about my blood pressure readings and I'm wondering if I should be worried. My BP is currently 110 over 90is that normal? Sometimes it's 126 over 96, and other times it's 115 over 85. Today it's 110 over 90. Should I be concerned, or is this within a normal range?

Your BP readings are slightly on the higher side of normal, especially the diastolic (90+). Occasional variations can happen, but consistently elevated readings (above 12080) could indicate prehypertension. Monitor it regularly, reduce stress, eat healthy, and consult a doctor if it stays high.

View allI've been experiencing this weird tightness in my chest, like something is stuck or not right in there. It's been going on for about half an hour now. Can you help me understand what's happening? It's making me pretty anxious.
This sensation could be due to acid reflux. You can try taking an antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg to help relieve the discomfort. It is recommended to take 2-4 tablets as needed, but not exceeding 15 tablets in 24 hours. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention immediately.

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.
