Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I take medication to control it regularly, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Please ask, what are the causes of malignant hypertension?Doctor's answer:
Hello, welcome to consult. Malignant hypertension is mostly moderate to severe hypertension that has not been well controlled or has poor blood pressure control, expanding into malignant hypertension. It is mainly caused by insufficient attention from hypertensive patients, lack of timely and standardized treatment, or inappropriate treatment. Malignant hypertension can manifest as a sudden significant drop in blood pressure, with diastolic blood pressure persisting at ≥130mmHg, accompanied by headaches, blurred vision, retinal bleeding, and weak kidney damage.
