Patient's question:
My father has high blood pressure and high uric acid. I've been feeling dizzy recently, along with joint pain that moves around a lot, and sometimes I also have lower back pain. Over the past couple of days, my dizziness has been severe, so I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said that my high blood pressure is due to hereditary hypertension and high uric acid. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
For these hereditary diseases, there is no particularly effective treatment method. It is essential to actively implement early treatment. For hypertension, taking relevant medications under the guidance of a doctor is necessary, which can be a single drug or a combination of multiple different drugs. Moreover, it must be taken regularly and long-term. Only by stabilizing blood pressure can the recurrence of many complications be reduced. Additionally, for high uric acid, attention should be paid to diet to avoid foods high in purine content.
