Can pulmonary hypertension be lowered?

Patient's question:

Zhang Weiwei's husband is disabled. It is said that he now suffers from pulmonary arterial hypertension. I don't know if this disease can be reduced. I want to know if your pulmonary arterial hypertension can be reduced?

Doctor's answer:

Pulmonary hypertension is caused by the constriction of pulmonary artery vessels, cell division of pulmonary artery endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells, and in situ thrombosis. This leads to increased pulmonary vascular resistance. Pulmonary hypertension is a disease that ultimately leads to fatal right heart failure. It is not a single disease. All inflammations that cause portal venous blood flow obstruction can lead to portal hypertension. Therefore, in clinical diagnosis, it is often presented as portal hypertension. The manifestations of portal hypertension and the primary disease. Sildenafil, a vasodilator drug, has a certain effect on pulmonary hypertension caused by increased vascular resistance. However, portal hypertension is obstructed by the portal vein. Therefore, Sildenafil has no therapeutic effect.
