What causes high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

My mother-in-law suffers from high blood pressure, and I really want to ask the doctor what caused her high blood pressure?

Doctor's answer:

Hypertension is a common clinical diagnosis in neurology, most of which is caused by hereditary transmission across generations, high blood lipids, diabetes, neurological factors, kidney diseases, or other systemic diseases that lead to hypertension. If active treatment is not implemented, it can result in the recurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. It is necessary to actively treat the primary disease while taking additional oral antihypertensive medications, adopting a light, low-salt, low-fat, and low-cholesterol diet, avoiding emotional excitement, preventing overwork, and quitting smoking and alcohol.
