Does blood vessel blockage cause high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

I previously went to the hospital for a health check-up and found that I have a problem with blood vessel blockage. Some people said that if there is a problem with blood vessel blockage, it can lead to high blood pressure. I don't know if blood vessel blockage can cause high blood pressure.

Doctor's answer:

When a problem of blood vessel blockage is carefully identified, it is necessary to take medication promptly for treatment. This is because if there is a blood vessel blockage issue, it is highly likely to potentially lead to cerebrovascular disease. However, the likelihood of it causing high blood pressure is relatively small. If a patient does have high blood pressure, there is a high probability that it may lead to blood vessel blockage. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek professional and comprehensive treatment at the hospital as soon as possible.
