Chinese medicine is different. Chinese medicine treats hypertension according to the patient's condition. The treatment of hypertension can be divided into vertigo, hyperactivity of fire due to yin deficiency and hyperactivity of yang due to yin deficiency. Chinese medicine believes that there are three main reasons why hypertension occurs.
1 Liver depression and hyperactivity of liver fire
2 Types of blood vessel blockage
3 yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity type
1 Low pressure and high pressure, not too high, high blood pressure with small pressure difference, belonging to liver depression and liver fire type. Drugs include Danzhi Xiaoyao Pill, Longdan Xiegan Pill and Qingnao Jiangya Tablet.
Low pressure and high pressure belong to the obstruction of liver meridian, mainly dredging blood vessels, clearing liver and purging fire. Chinese patent medicines include Xuefu Zhuyu Pill, Xieqing Pill and Danggui Aloe Pill.
Hypertensive patients with hypertension and hypotension belong to yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity type. This kind of patients have a large pressure difference, which actually belongs to hyperactivity of liver yang or vigorous liver fire after kidney yin deficiency. The treatment method is to add or subtract Baizhi Dihuang Pill or Tianma Gouteng Drink.
Among these common hypertension, there are patients with low pressure, high pressure and high pressure. Western medicine also says that it is the most difficult to treat. Why, patients are more common in young and strong middle-aged men. They drink too much, they are afraid of heat and cold, they blush, they are prone to dizziness and headache, their temples are beating and they hold their breath. Because of abundant qi and blood, blood vessels are blocked, and low pressure is relatively high, which has the greatest damage to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, so we must pay attention to this.
Hypertension patients with yin deficiency and excessive fire are more common in middle-aged and elderly people. Low pressure is lower than 70, high pressure is higher than 150, and the pressure difference is very large. Why is this? Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidney yin is deficient, the blood does not flow down, and the blood attacks the head, resulting in the phenomenon of yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity. Therefore, it is necessary to replenish coke, balance blood pressure, tonify kidney and yin, increase low blood pressure, and relieve fire and reduce high blood pressure. Commonly used are white rehmannia pills and gastrodia elata hook vine.
Regarding the understanding of hypertension, you can see the wounded and bleeding people on the battlefield. In severe cases, the blood pressure is almost zero. Why? Because there is no blood in blood vessels, the pressure on blood vessels is almost zero, and most patients with hypertension are patients with sufficient blood volume or blood stasis. Knowing these truths, it is easy for Chinese medicine to treat the symptoms caused by hypertension. In fact, sometimes high blood pressure is also a natural reaction of the human body.
You can't say that taking medicine will keep your blood pressure low all your life, because blood pressure is a dynamic value, and even some people's blood pressure will rise when they are emotional, so Chinese medicine can treat patients without any discomfort, but it can't guarantee that their blood pressure will never be high.
