Patient's question:
Grandma's blood pressure has been frequently dropping over the past two years, especially when she is excited or emotionally agitated. She often feels dizzy, has headaches, fatigue, and palpitations. Although these symptoms usually subside after resting, our family is worried about potential accidents. We have tried some treatments to lower her blood pressure, but they haven't been very effective. What are the treatment methods for high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Hello, blood pressure is originally prone to being affected by emotions, headaches, dizziness, and physical activity, leading to blood pressure fluctuations. Currently, there is no cure for this internationally, so we can only control blood pressure within the normal range through oral medication, exercise, and dietary control to reduce the risk of complications and shorten the patient's lifespan. Therefore, in addition to oral medication, dietary attention should be paid to low-salt and low-fat diets, as well as quitting smoking and drinking alcohol.
