I'm noticing some weird fluctuations in my heart rate. Out of nowhere, it sometimes shoots up to 90-110. Heres what Ive tracked: when Im sleeping, it varies between 65-80, and when Im resting, it's around 70-90. But it gets to 90-110 when Im stressed. Climbing up to my apartment on the 3rd floor gets it to 110-120, a 5-minute walk pushes it to 100, and a 30-minute walk averages at 140 according to my smartwatch. After an hour walk, my watch shows an average of 165. And when I skip for just 5 minutes, my heart rate jumps to 140. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Ive stopped exercising because it seems like my heart rate goes up too much. I'm 32, by the way.

Based on the information you provided, your heart rate seems to be fluctuating quite a bit. It is normal for your heart rate to increase during physical activity, stress, or even when climbing stairs. However, consistently high heart rates during rest or sleep could indicate an underlying issue. I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to incorporate moderate-intensity exercises like brisk walking or swimming into your routine and monitor your heart rate closely. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, please seek immediate medical attention

I'm really worried because even though I had an ECG, Echo, and a chest X-ray done about three months ago and they all showed normal results, including my SPO2 and pulse rate, I'm still experiencing pain in my left chest and left hand regularly for the past 6 to 7 months. The ECG did mention sinus tachycardia with sinus arrhythmia and a low T wave in V6. I also had Bell's palsy about a year ago but have completely recovered since then. Could all of this be connected somehow? What should I do next?

Given that your recent ECG, Echocardiogram, and chest X-ray were normal but you are still experiencing persistent left chest and hand pain, it is crucial to further investigate the cause of your symptoms. Sinus tachycardia and sinus arrhythmia noted on your ECG can sometimes be benign, but persistent pain warrants further evaluation. You should follow up with a cardiologist for a thorough review, and they may recommend additional tests like a stress test or Holter monitoring. Additionally, it might be beneficial to consider non-cardiac causes of your pain such as musculoskeletal issues or gastrointestinal problems like acid reflux. Managing stress and anxiety can also help alleviate symptoms. Please ensure you consult your healthcare provider to explore these options and manage your symptoms effectively.

Which salt is better for high blood pressure?

Try to avoid table salt specifically in raw form. Better to go for Himalayan salt or rock salt instead of it. That cutting down on sodium in your diet is the best way to maintain your BP? Even a small reduction in the sodium in your diet can improve blood pressure by about 5 to 6 mm Hg.
