I've been feeling light-headed every now and then for the past few months. I'm 38, weigh 95 kg, and am 5'7". I don't smoke or drink, and I've been avoiding sugar and cholesterol. My thyroid level is 5.8. I recently started jogging two months ago, and my ECG says I have sinus bradycardia. Should I be worried about this? Is it related to my new exercise routine or something else?

"Based on your information, sinus bradycardia is a condition where the heart beats slower than normal. In your case, since you are experiencing light-headedness, it may be related to your sinus bradycardia. I recommend you to take Tab. Propranolol 10mg once daily to help regulate your heart rate and alleviate the symptoms. However, it is important to consult with a doctor for proper evaluation and monitoring of your condition."

I'm a bit worried about my mom's condition after her angioplasty. It's been about three weeks now and her hand was pretty swollen. The swelling is getting better, but there are still blue and red patches on her skin. They seem to be fading, and the pain isn't as bad as before, but I'm just really curious about what's causing these color changes. Does this indicate something serious, or is it a normal part of the healing process? Her current medications include Brilinta, Ecosprin, and insulin. I've attached a photo to show you what it looks like. Could you help me understand what's happening?
The blue and red color patches on your mother's hand after angioplasty are likely due to bruising and inflammation, which can be a common side effect of the procedure. As the swelling has reduced and the patches are vanishing slowly, along with a reduction in pain, it indicates that her body is healing properly. This is a normal part of the recovery process after angioplasty. To help with the healing process, you can continue with the current medications. Additionally, you can apply a cold compress to the affected area and elevate the hand to reduce swelling. If there is persistent pain or if you notice any signs of infection such as increased redness, warmth, or discharge from the area, then it would be advisable to consult with the treating physician for further evaluation.
