Patient's question:
Grandpa has been experiencing frequent dizziness and discomfort in his heart recently. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was discovered that he has high blood pressure. Since Grandpa dislikes traditional Chinese medicine, he wants to buy some herbal remedies to treat him. I wonder what the traditional Chinese medicine treatment for high blood pressure is?Doctor's answer:
The patient has a history of hypertension and has again experienced symptoms such as headaches and dizziness. It is important to be cautious of acute blood pressure spikes. Therefore, controlling blood pressure elevation is the most critical measure. While traditional Chinese medicine can be used, it is only an auxiliary treatment. It is essential to adhere to the appropriate, long-term, and regular use of antihypertensive medications. At the same time, attention should be paid to maintaining a low-sodium, low-fat, and light diet, keeping a positive mindset and emotional well-being, engaging in moderate daily exercise, controlling weight, and preventing obesity. These measures should be focused on alleviating the condition of hypertension.
