Patient's question:
I have been a mother for more than three months, but I noticed that when I had a gynecological examination at the hospital, the doctor said my blood pressure was high. I want to know what I should do, but I don't have any specific symptoms, just occasional dizziness.What kind of help is needed: How to deal with high blood pressure 3 months after childbirth?
Doctor's answer:
According to the high blood pressure condition that appeared in your body after childbirth, it is recommended that you measure your blood pressure for a period of time. If the blood pressure remains high and does not drop below 160/100, you should first adjust your lifestyle. Follow a low-salt, low-fat diet, with a daily salt intake of 5g. Increase your intake of vegetables, fruits, and potassium-rich foods. Maintain a regular schedule, engage in appropriate activities to nourish your body, and always keep your emotions stable. If the blood pressure remains high after one year, it is recommended to take antihypertensive medication.
