Sir, I recently did an executive health check up. All my tests are normal except for high cholesterol. I am attaching the report for reference. Could you please advise what steps I should take to lower my cholesterol? Is this a serious issue, or can it be managed with exercise and a proper diet? My doctor has also advised taking Razel 10 mg daily at night. Please guide me

If only cholesterol is raised and all other tests are normal, it can often be managed through diet and exercise. Start with 30 to 45 minutes of walking, cut down on fried food, red meat, and sweets. Lipid Profile should be repeated after 3 months of lifestyle change. If the doctor has advised Razel 10 mg, continue it alongside diet control. It is not serious unless other heart risks (BP, diabetes) are present.

I am 25 years old and not doing heavy work, just office work. Sometimes I get pain in my left chest when I feel afraid or panic. During the pain, I do not have sweating or breathing problems. May I know why this happens? Is it due to cholesterol or something else?
