Patient's question:
The other day, when I went with my grandfather to measure blood pressure, I found that it was as high as 230. What are the dangers of having high blood pressure at 230?Doctor's answer:
Your blood pressure is very high, which is quite dangerous. First, you need long-term medication to lower your blood pressure as soon as possible. Blood pressure greater than or equal to 180 mmHg is classified as stage 3 hypertension, which is very dangerous. Such high blood pressure can easily lead to cerebral hemorrhage. It is recommended to seek hospitalization for treatment and to have your condition reassessed. You should take medication long-term and monitor your data. Pay attention to a low-salt, low-fat diet, avoid pickled foods, and avoid greasy and spicy foods. Relax and do not get nervous. Ensure you get sufficient deep sleep.
