What factors cause high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've always felt dizzy. After a thorough check-up at the hospital, they said it was caused by rising blood pressure and that I have high blood pressure. I want to know what the specific causes of high blood pressure are?

Doctor's answer:

The causes of high blood pressure are not yet fully understood. Common factors include intergenerational inheritance, obesity, advanced age, excessive salt intake, environmental and occupational factors, etc. High blood pressure cannot be cured, and long-term medication is required for control. It is recommended to use long-acting preparations with fewer dosing frequencies and stable antihypertensive effects. Maintain a low-salt, low-fat diet, quit smoking and alcohol, engage in appropriate physical exercise to reduce weight, and at the same time enhance the body's resistance.
