Hyperkalemia can cause junctional rhythm and brady. Other causes are symptomatic rbbb, lbbb and/or bifascicular block.
In certain persons brady is normal and not a cause of concern.
Beta antagonists also lower heart rate. Hypothyroidism and congenital heart disease are other causes.
Cardiac evaluation, holter monitoring, serum electrolytes and drug history are required.

Health Query

I suffer from klippel-trenaunay syndrome (kts) in my left leg. I underwent a laser treatment that apparently wasn't supposed to happen and i've now been suffering from chronic pain for the last 6 years and I walk with a cane to help lift some of the pressure. I was prescribed tramadol, pregabalin, gabapentin, nalbuphine, none of which did much good really, and if they did, it became very unpractical to my life. I heard about charlotte's web medical cbd oil and its benefits for people that suffer from chronic pain and I was wondering if it would be recommended to someone with severe kts and how beneficial would it actually be to someone that suffers from crippling pain that still wants to practice a normal everyday life. Thank you.

Hello Omar.
I don't have much knowledge about the oil.
You are free to try it.
But I am sure Homoeopathic treatment can give better pain relief.
So in case you don't get relief from oil then you are free to consult for Homoeopathic treatment.

I am 37 years old with diabetes. I had back pain so consulted ortho n neuro doc they told not to worry and do exercises. But where I bend forward a sound comes off from lower back I am really and uncomfortable pls let me know am really worried j scared.

Physiotherapist•Agra

Hi lybrate user ,The fluid in your joints comprises a gel substance and gas, including oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. If you compress your joint and move close to the end of your range, there is often enough pressure to release this gas, resulting in a popping sound. Bones rubbing against each other will make a grinding sound.

thanks and regards

If you had disc herniation 4 weeks back, by now your pain should be better and you should be doing back strengthening exercises. If not taken physiotherapy treatment then I would suggest to take proper therapy with Precaution and correct set of exercises. Pain radiating down the leg means nerve compression is there it should get better with the therapy ..only taking medicines will not help.
