Patient's question:
Doctor, my mother is 63 years old this year. My mother is a patient with high blood pressure and has been taking antihypertensive medication for treatment. However, in the past two days, my mother has had a fever again. I would like to ask, what should be done for high blood pressure patients with a fever?Doctor's answer:
A patient with hypertension has developed a fever again, which is likely caused by a recurrence of infectious inflammation. In this situation, it is necessary to promptly visit a regular hospital for relevant and thorough examinations. Only after diagnosis can targeted treatment be administered.Patients with hypertension should, under the guidance of a doctor, use appropriate antihypertensive medications to control blood pressure. They should also pay attention to maintaining a positive mental and physical state, ensuring sufficient deep sleep, avoiding smoking and alcohol, and regularly monitoring blood pressure data.
