Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 21 years old this year. Hello, do I need to take medication for stage three hypertension, or can it be stabilized through diet and exercise?Doctor's answer:
Youth Level 3 hypertension, this condition indicates that blood pressure has decreased, but it does not exceed 150. In this case, it is usually necessary to stabilize the situation through diet and exercise. If the blood pressure cannot be controlled within one month, antihypertensive medication should be administered. Recommendations and guidance should include a thorough check for secondary hypertension, especially by examining the five hypertension-related tests, as well as renal artery and renal examinations, and adrenal gland examinations. This is to understand whether the blood pressure decrease may be caused by kidney inflammation or other secondary inflammatory conditions.
