How to treat nosebleeds caused by high blood pressure

Patient's question:

My mother has had high blood pressure for several years. She often feels dizzy, and she has never missed taking her medication. There haven't been any further incidents. Recently, however, she suddenly started bleeding from her nose, which scared our family. I want to consult: is it serious for high blood pressure to cause severe nosebleeds? What measures should be taken?

Doctor's answer:

If you have high blood pressure, and this nosebleed is believed to be related to high blood pressure, then this level of high blood pressure is usually more severe. The nosebleed caused by this situation is not a major problem, but it indicates that the high blood pressure is relatively serious and requires active blood pressure control. It is best not to take it lightly, at least the blood pressure should be controlled to an ideal level. It is recommended that patients maintain a light diet, exercise more, and drink more water during treatment.
