I've been experiencing some pin-point pain in my chest lately, and it's kind of worrying me. It happens at different spots, like sometimes it's in the center, other times on the left or right side. The pain doesn't last long, maybe just 3 or 4 seconds, but it's accompanied by a burning sensation sometimes too. Could you help me understand what's going on?

- Aciloc 150mg: Ranitidine, the active ingredient in Aciloc, is an H2 receptor antagonist that reduces stomach acid production.
- Digene Syrup: Digene is an antacid and anti-flatulent medication that helps neutralize stomach acid and relieve symptoms of indigestion.

I'm a bit concerned about my heart rate. It's usually around 96, but it goes up to 120 when I walk. I don't have any other symptoms and I've had a thyroid test, ECG, and echo done, all of which came back normal. The only thing on the ECG was sinus tachycardia. I did have mild Covid last April. Should I be worried about this, or will my heart rate settle down on its own over time?
Sinus tachycardia is a common condition where the heart rate is elevated but the heart rhythm is normal. Since your thyroid, ECG, and echo results are normal, and considering your history of mild COVID-19 last year, your elevated heart rate may be due to post-viral effects. In most cases, sinus tachycardia resolves on its own as the body recovers from the viral illness. To help manage your heart rate, you can try to reduce stress, stay hydrated, and ensure you are getting adequate rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol at a low dose of 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. However, it is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication. Monitoring your heart rate regularly and following up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation is recommended.

I'm a bit worried because my husband recently had his routine health check-up and his blood pressure was at 11070 mmHg with a pulse rate of 66 bpm. He's only 30 years old, so I'm concerned that these numbers might be too low. Could you suggest why this might be happening and what we could do about it?
Low blood pressure and pulse rate in a young individual can be due to various reasons such as dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, heart conditions, or being physically fit. It is important to rule out any underlying medical conditions. In the meantime, he can increase his salt and fluid intake to help raise his blood pressure. He should also ensure he is well-hydrated and consider consuming caffeine in moderation to help increase his pulse rate. If symptoms persist, he should consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
