Can Inherited Hypertension Be Cured?
Genetic hypertension is usually incurable, but its condition can be controlled through daily care or medication, which is conducive to controlling blood pressure. Hypertension is usually caused by the persistent higher pressure of the flowing blood on the blood vessel wall than normal, which has a certain degree of hereditability. However, genetic factors are usually unchangeable, and the resulting hypertension is often irreversible, requiring lifelong antihypertensive medication, so it cannot be cured. After the onset of genetic hypertension, patients need to maintain good work and rest habits, ensure sufficient sleep at night, and avoid staying up late. At the same time, they should strictly control their diet, eat less foods with high fat content, such as fatty meat and fried food, to avoid increasing the burden on the blood vessel wall and causing excessive blood pressure fluctuations. If hypertension is severe, patients can take nifedipine sustained-release tablets, amlodipine besylate tablets, and felodipine sustained-release tablets under the guidance of doctors, which can help lower blood pressure. If the condition is severe, it is recommended that patients seek medical treatment in a formal hospital to avoid delaying the condition. In daily life, patients can strengthen physical exercise and appropriately perform aerobic exercises, such as jogging and skipping, to promote blood circulation.
