Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing dizziness, headaches, blurred vision, insufficient qi and blood, shortness of breath, weakness in the limbs, neurasthenia, increased nighttime urination, chest tightness, nausea, and sometimes numbness in the limbs. I'd like to consult a doctor: How should mild hypertension be treated?Doctor's answer:
Mild hypertension, first and foremost, requires regular oral antihypertensive medication to control blood pressure, and ACE inhibitors can be chosen for treatment. Additionally, in daily life, attention should be paid to a low-sodium, low-fat diet, avoiding staying up late, and maintaining a pleasant mood to prevent anxiety, depression, and tension. It is also important to avoid smoking, drinking alcohol, and other factors that can raise blood pressure. For symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, and limb numbness, further cranial CT examination can be conducted to rule out the possibility of cerebrovascular diseases.
