Patient's question:
Son is only 15 years old this year, and he was carefully examined in the hospital and found to have high blood pressure. I want to ask how to deal with young people with high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Hypertension can currently be divided into primary hypertension and secondary hypertension. Young patients who discover high blood pressure need to rule out secondary hypertension, such as kidney dysfunction, adrenal pheochromocytoma, hyperaldosteronism, etc. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for further and more thorough examination to rule out other causes of hypertension. If secondary hypertension is ruled out, it is necessary to cooperate with the doctor in treatment in a timely manner. Maintain a light diet and monitor blood pressure data.
