Prostatitis can cause high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

The doctor wants to consult you about whether prostatitis can lead to high blood pressure. I was previously diagnosed with prostatitis, but during daily life, I experienced dizziness and blurred vision again. Sometimes, even while taking a nap, I felt dizzy. Later, a check-up revealed high blood pressure.

Doctor's answer:

You previously had prostatitis, and now you also have high blood pressure. Your current high blood pressure has nothing to do with your previous prostatitis. There are several causes of high blood pressure, mainly related to generational inheritance and living environment, dietary habits. You should now pay attention to a low-salt, low-fat diet, maintain sufficient daily activity, and be careful not to catch a cold. If your blood pressure is particularly high, oral antihypertensive medication treatment may be necessary.
