The weather turns cooler in autumn, and the temperature difference between day and night changes from heat to cold. Patients with hypertension are prone to symptoms such as stroke . Therefore, it is necessary to intervene in the lifestyle of patients with hypertension in autumn, master the correct precautions in autumn, prevent blood pressure fluctuations, and cause inconvenience to treatment. So what should patients with hypertension pay attention to in autumn?
1. Master the dosage of medication
Hypertensive patients need drugs to stabilize blood pressure all year round. In summer, the weather is hot, the blood vessels are dilated, and the blood pressure is increased. The temperature turns cooler in autumn and the blood pressure of cerebral blood vessels contract and increase. At this time, you should go to the hospital to see a doctor and adjust the dosage of antihypertensive drugs to help stabilize and control blood pressure. In autumn, you should insist on taking medicine to avoid fishing for three days and drying the net for two days.
2. Take good care of the medication time
The climate is dry in autumn, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large. Due to blood vessel contraction, blood pressure is prone to rise. Many patients will feel dizzy and need to find a professional doctor to adjust the medication time. If dizziness still occurs after adjusting the medication time, further examination is required.
3. Prevent nosebleed
Autumn is the season for many middle-aged and elderly people to have nosebleeds, mainly due to the aging of blood vessels in middle-aged and elderly people and poor elasticity of nasal mucosal artery. The climate in autumn is dry, the secretion is reduced, and the nasal cavity is particularly dry. At this time, external force touches the nose and easily causes nasal bleeding . When a patient with hypertensive experiences nasal bleeding, it means that the blood pressure is unstable and must be taken seriously.
4. The diet must be light
0. The climate in autumn is cooler, and autumn is the season for harvest. Many people are in a good mood and often have a lot of appetite. If they don’t pay attention to eating too much in their diet, their blood pressure will fluctuate. Therefore, if they want to stabilize their blood pressure in the fall, they must eat light and avoid overeating. The correct way to eat should be to control your food, eat less greasy and irritating foods, and eat more foods containing potassium ion to combat the effect of sodium ion on the increase of blood pressure, and at the same time it can also promote salivation and moisten dryness.
5, moderate exercise
When the weather turns colder, proper exercise is conducive to regulating blood pressure, but for elderly patients with hypertension , do not suddenly try to do strenuous exercises such as mountain climbing and running. These exercises can easily lead to sudden increase in blood pressure, causing cerebral hemorrhage . You can choose to take a walk, practice Tai Chi and other gentle methods, which can not only exercise the body, regulate blood pressure, but also reduce risks.
6. Pay attention to self-health
Patients with hypertension should pay attention to self-health all year round, especially in autumn, which is cold in the morning and evening. They should add or reduce clothes appropriately to prevent infection caused by colds. In addition, autumn is a relatively desolate season. Many patients with hypertension will be pessimistic and depressed. They should adjust their mood, do more things that can make them feel happy, and keep a happy mood.
In autumn, patients with hypertension must closely observe various changes in their bodies, measure their blood pressure every day, grasp the factors that cause blood pressure fluctuations, and carry out prevention and treatment as soon as possible to help alleviate the patient's symptoms. Through drug treatment, diet therapy and lifestyle intervention, correct the symptoms of hypertension and help patients with hypertension spend autumn and winter safely and healthily.
