Patient's question:
My husband suffers from high blood pressure, and I want him to exercise. Can he do sit-ups with high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to serve you. If hypertension is clearly diagnosed, antihypertensive drugs should be used promptly based on blood pressure levels to control it within an effective range. Monitor the data regularly and adjust the dosage of antihypertensive drugs in a timely manner according to blood pressure changes. Increase activity, reduce weight, follow a low-salt, low-fat diet, and eat more green vegetables and fruits. Patients can do sit-ups, but they should not cause discomfort or lead to a drop in blood pressure. If that happens, it is recommended to do them in sufficient quantity.
