Patient's question:
I have always had low blood pressure and often felt dizzy. Recently, I don't know why, after a thorough check-up at the hospital, my blood pressure dropped from 130 to 150. I don't understand why my blood pressure could change so quickly. Hello, what are the reasons for low blood pressure turning into high blood pressure? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Sudden high blood pressure may be directly related to mental stress and work pressure. Currently, there is no specific medication for treating high blood pressure, and the specific medication depends on the patient's condition. It is generally recommended to take long-acting antihypertensive drugs, such as enalapril or sustained-release nifedipine. The former has good cardiovascular protection function, and for difficult-to-control hypertension, diuretics like compound lisinopril can be added for treatment. At the same time, dietary management is also very important. It is necessary to abstain from alcohol, follow a low-salt and low-fat diet, eat less animal fat and internal organs, and consume more rough fiber foods like celery, which have a very good blood pressure-lowering effect. It is also important to maintain a positive mindset.
