Asked for Male, 57
l am 57 years old and got pain in heart suddenly and after drinking warm milk it was gone can u please identify why i got that
Answered on 7th Oct '24
You have experienced something referred to as angina. Angina is a medical term that often indicates chest pain or uneasy feelings. It occurs when your heart is not getting enough blood, primarily from the narrowing of arteries. You might have been driven to drink milk if it was rather heartburn. Nonetheless, it is necessary to consult a cardiologist for correct diagnosis and treatment to rule out a more dangerous disease.

I am suffering from hypertension. I'm taking medication to control it. But couple of side effects is disrupting my daily life. Leading to this, I also have sleeping problems. I would like a doctor to advice me in order to get my pressure back to normal and to have a sound sleep again after years.
Answered on 7th Oct '24
Your current medication may be causing unwanted side effects, which are affecting your sleep and daily routine. I recommend visiting a cardiologist, who can review your treatment and possibly adjust your medication to manage both your blood pressure and improve your sleep. They might also suggest lifestyle changes or refer you to a sleep specialist if needed.

CARDIOLOGY, CHEST PAIN, WEEKNESS
Answered on 4th Oct '24
Chest pain and weakness may indicate a heart condition. The chest pain that you are going through may seem like a tight band around your chest or you may feel a squeezing sensation. It could also be radiating towards your arms, back, neck, or jaw. Weakness is defined as the state of being fatigued and lacking energy. The reasons might be heart attacks, coronary heart disease, or elevated blood pressure. Timely treatment is necessary to avoid serious issues or complications. Visit a cardiologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Answered on 1st Oct '24
The sensation of movement or shifting inside can be due to multiple reasons like indigestion, muscle strains, or even heart-related issues. For a reliable treatment, you need to visit a cardiologist. They may suggest electrocardiograms (ECG) and echocardiograms to determine the health of your heart.
Asked for Male, 21
My dad has high blood pressure should I get checked out as I’m 21 now
Answered on 1st Oct '24
Family genes can pass down high blood pressure from one generation to another. Regular check-ups, even at your age, are paramount. The symptoms are infrequently visible, therefore, it is advisable to do testing. They may be attributed to diet, stress, and genetics. A balanced diet, physical activity, and stress management are the key factors that can help avoid high blood pressure.

Mild tr with rvsp . Good lv systolic function. Diastolic dysfunction grade 2. Increased lap , symptoms - fast breathing ( not shortness of breath) .how to treat it? Or how to manage it?
Answered on 24th Sept '24
Your heart is working harder than it should, which can cause rapid breathing. This may be due to high blood pressure or a heart valve issue. You might need medications or lifestyle changes to help your heart function better and improve your breathing.
Asked for Male, 25
I am a 25 year old male who is having recent bouts of chest pressure and shortness of breath sometimes. I also have a bad taste/mucus coming from the back of my throat. I went to the ER and they ruled out a heart attack. I’m just very worried as I am young and fear for my health. It is also important to note that I am 6’1” and 381 pounds. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Answered on 23rd Sept '24
Having worrying symptoms like chest pressure, shortness of breath, and a bad taste/mucus in your throat suggests something is wrong. Though the ER ruled out a heart attack, these symptoms may be due to your weight issue. Excessive weight can cause your heart and lungs to work harder, thus resulting in these problems. You may want to talk with a doctor about your weight and how it may affect your health.
Asked for Female, 34
I am 34 year female,my blood pressure level 80/50 what can I do, pls reply
Answered on 23rd Sept '24
Your blood pressure has reached the level of 80/50. This is the score that is reckoned to be low. The consequences of this might range from dizzy spells to lightheadedness, tiredness, or even fainting. This may be a result of dehydration, heart issues, medication side effects, or other health problems. These tips can help with low blood pressure: drink a lot of water, eat regular meals, avoid standing up too quickly, and consult a cardiologist.
Asked for Male, 36
I have lab report , few things to consult or clarify . Main concern is high cholesterol
Answered on 24th Sept '24
Your lab report which says that you have high cholesterol. This is the case when there is a lot of fat in your blood. High cholesterol is often symptomless, however, it can be a risk factor for heart diseases in the future. A balanced diet, regular exercise, and medication, if necessary, can be effective in lowering cholesterol.
