I've had an echo done several times and each time it showed trace tricuspid regurgitation, even as recent as two months ago and again today. Is there a way to make this situation normal? Could it possibly resolve on its own?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Trace tricuspid regurgitation is a common finding on echocardiograms and is usually not a cause for concern. In most cases, it does not require any specific treatment and often resolves on its own. However, it is important to manage any underlying conditions that may be contributing to the regurgitation. You can try to improve your heart health by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. If you have any concerns, you can consult with your doctor about potential treatment options.

View allI'm a bit confused about my medication change. My doctor used to prescribe Concor AM 2.5mg, but now they've switched me to Concor COR 2.5mg. Can you explain the difference between the two? I'm curious if there's a big change or anything I should be concerned about.
Concor AM 2.5mg is a combination medication containing bisoprolol (a beta-blocker) and amlodipine (a calcium channel blocker), while Concor COR 2.5mg contains only bisoprolol. The main difference is that Concor AM helps control blood pressure through two different mechanisms because of its two active ingredients, while Concor COR works through just one mechanism (beta-blocking). However, since this involves your prescribed medication, you should check with your doctor or pharmacist about why they made this change, as they know your specific medical situation and can explain their reasoning for modifying your prescription.

I've been having this small tingly sensation in my upper chest since November 2016. It kinda feels like there's a blockage or something. Should I be worried about this, and what might it be?
The symptoms you are describing could be related to acid reflux or a nerve issue. To help with the tingling sensation, you can try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid. Additionally, you can take Gabapentin (brand name Neurontin) 300mg three times a day to help with nerve-related symptoms. However, it is important to consult with a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
