A member asked:

How can i help my mom to stop high blood pressure from recurring?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably can't: Hypertension is too complicated with many factors affecting it to "keep if from recurring". Goals for any patient with hypertension are to restrict salt, caffeine, and alcohol. Also, be close to ideal body weight. Finally stress and poorly controlled pain can be contributing factors. Finally, patients need to work closely with their physician for medications prescribed.
