Hello! To your question "Can high blood pressure be completely cured", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
If the patient has high blood pressure for a long time, is diagnosed with grade 3 at an advanced age and primary hypertension requires long-term, even lifelong, treatment to stabilize blood pressure and improve life function.
Secondary hypertension can be treated definitively with organic causes, eg stenting for renal artery dilation with unilateral renal artery stenosis (no complications, complications, heart failure), Since then, the blood pressure readings return to normal. In addition, surgery for coarctation of the aorta in children, blood pressure indicators also returned to normal.
You can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System to diagnose and treat high blood pressure. There is a team of qualified and experienced medical doctors who will provide treatment regimens as well as give advice to improve the disease effectively.
Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Best regards!
