Patient's question:
Hello doctor! I am 39 years old with a history of hypertension for eight years. Previously, when my blood pressure was 140/100, taking nitroglycerin tablets did not lower it. Especially with the ventilator, it kept fluctuating around 100, and my head was dizzy all day with constant pain. My quality of life has definitely declined. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
If a patient has a history of 8 years of hypertension and it reappears, there is currently a consideration that it may lead to cardiovascular risks. Especially based on the symptoms you described, there is a possibility of long-term poor blood pressure control, which may result in cerebral arteriosclerosis and coronary heart disease. If this situation reappears, it is still recommended to control blood pressure well. Daily life should involve a low-salt, low-fat diet, regular exercise, and irregular monitoring of blood pressure data.
