Is sleeping good for high blood pressure?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
People who sleep six hours or less may have steeper increases in blood pressure. If you already have high blood pressure, not sleeping well may make your blood pressure worse. It's thought that sleep helps your body control hormones needed to regulate stress and metabolism.

View allI've been worried about getting the COVID vaccine because of some heart issues. My father had an angiogram back in 2012, and though he's not on any medication now, I've occasionally felt mild heart pain that seems to go away after a bit. I'm really unsure about whether it's safe for me to get the vaccine given these concerns. Can you offer any advice on this? Is there a risk involved?
