A member asked:
If you have prehypertension/borderline hypertension for some months, then get it under control and keep it under control, will blood vessels, etc., repair themselves in time without lasting damage?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
In general, yes: Hi. If there is no damage to arterial and capillary vessel walls due to chronic HTN, you should be fine by getting the BP under control. Don't hesitate to take something real for your BP if your homeopathic things aren't doing the job.
