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.

I'm a 28-year-old guy and I've been smoking weed daily since I was nine. I don't drink at all, and I consider myself to be quite fit. But for the last 34 days, I've noticed the left side of my chest is a bit swollen and sore, although it's not painful to touch. Should I be worried about this? Could it be something serious?

It's concerning that you are experiencing swelling and soreness in the left side of your chest. This could be due to various reasons, including inflammation, muscle strain, or even a potential underlying health issue. However, given your history of smoking weed since a young age, it's important to consider the impact of smoking on your respiratory and cardiovascular health. I recommend that you stop smoking immediately and seek medical attention for a proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) to help with the pain and swelling. However, it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for a thorough assessment and appropriate treatment.
