What should I do if I have dizziness due to high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

I have always had high blood pressure, but I have been taking the medication prescribed by the doctor as instructed, taking the hypertension medication on time and in the right dosage. However, when I went for a walk in the park today, I felt a bit dizzy in the morning, not knowing whether it was due to my high blood pressure. Then I sat down and rested for a while, wondering if the dizziness was caused by the high blood pressure.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it's a pleasure to provide this service. According to the situation you described, high blood pressure can lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain, causing dizziness. However, cervical spondylosis can also cause dizziness. I suggest you go to the hospital for a cervical CT scan. It would be better to have a brain CT or MRI. High blood pressure requires taking antihypertensive medication on time to keep blood pressure within a normal range. In daily life, pay attention to a low-salt, low-fat diet, quit smoking and drinking alcohol, eat a light diet, consume more fruits and vegetables, exercise regularly, and avoid negative emotions such as anger and excitement. Wishing you good health!
