Patient's question:
My grandmother originally had high blood pressure and coronary heart disease. When her high blood pressure recurred, she would experience severe pain again, sometimes nausea and vomiting, dizziness, and fatigue. Each time her coronary heart disease recurred, it would cause brain edema and choking, as well as intermittent neural pain, each lasting for three to five minutes. What symptoms can high blood pressure and coronary heart disease cause?Doctor's answer:
Hypertension can lead to the recurrence of cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral thrombosis, cerebral infarction, or cerebral hemorrhage; coronary heart disease can lead to the recurrence of conditions like angina or myocardial infarction. If both conditions are severe, they can easily result in sudden death. Therefore, if the elderly suffer from hypertension and coronary heart disease, they must not be taken lightly or neglected. They should promptly seek follow-up medical examinations and treatments at regular public hospitals in the cardiovascular department. At the same time, it is important to enhance regulation and care, maintain a healthy lifestyle and dietary habits, and undergo regular follow-up examinations.
