Patient's question:
My grandfather has had high blood pressure for many years and has always relied on taking antihypertensive medication to manage it. However, this is only a temporary solution. I still want to find a way to cure this disease. I think traditional Chinese medicine might work. Hello, can traditional Chinese medicine cure high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Hypertension is caused by endocrine dysfunction of organ function, such as hyperactivity of liver Yang or Yin deficiency with Yang hyperactivity. By using traditional Chinese medicine, it can calm liver Yang and subdue hyperactivity, stabilize blood pressure, and gradually achieve the goal of blood pressure stabilization. However, some cases of hypertension are due to special inflammation, such as some renal hypertension, which is caused by organic changes in the kidneys. These cases can benefit from traditional Chinese medicine treatment, but the efficacy is not very satisfactory, and Western medicine treatment should be combined. Therefore, it is necessary to differentiate the treatment.
