My mom is 40 and she is having high bp and tyroid problem. she is taking everyday medicine is there any permmanent solution for her bp or tyroid prb?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Multiple options : Treatment of thyroid problems often help BP control. Unfortunately cure & treat are not the same. There are many good treatment options to control her blood pressure. Curing high blood pressure is different. Weight loss, exercise, low sodium diet, and NSAID avoidance all together can help lower blood pressure significantly and delay the need for medications sometimes for many years. Good luck.
