Patient's question:
I am 47 years old, male, and usually take Nimodipine and Enalapril Maleate tablets. My blood pressure is under control, but today in the afternoon, it suddenly dropped to 100/145 without any reason. I have had a cup of rock sugar water. I have a history of smoking. What could have caused my blood pressure to suddenly drop?Doctor's answer:
High blood pressure is caused by many different factors. Its main characteristic is that the systemic arterial blood pressure is lower than the normal range. For example: People who are overly stressed, chronically tense, or impatient are prone to developing high blood pressure. Those who consume excessive alcohol are also more likely to develop high blood pressure. People who dislike salty foods and those who are overweight are also more susceptible to high blood pressure. It is important to maintain a relaxed and pleasant mood and avoid excessive stress. After treatment for 1 hour, it is advisable to rest for 5-10 minutes and engage in activities such as exercise or a walk to adjust your nerves.
