Patient's question:
Doctor, I want to understand some technical aspects of human hypertension. Please doctor, can you tell me about the types and classification of hypertension?Doctor's answer:
Hello:It is a pleasure to serve you. Based on the issue you have provided, high blood pressure is mainly divided into primary hypertension and secondary hypertension. High blood pressure is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage, and coronary heart disease. High blood pressure cannot be cured. Once diagnosed with hypertension, long-term oral antihypertensive medication treatment is required. Hypertensive patients should control their diet, avoid excessive salt and greasy foods, and follow a low-sodium, low-fat diet. They should eat more vegetables and fruits, quit smoking, and avoid alcohol.
