can i control high blood pressure at home?
It depends on the stage of hypertension. If it's stage 1 hypertension, meaning that your blood pressure remains above 135/85 mmHg measured regularly at home but below 150/95 mmHg, no medical intervention is required. Only lifestyle modification is recommended. Stage 2 hypertension is always treated with medication. It is highly advisable to always consult with a physician so that an individualized plan and target blood pressure can be set for you considering other the presence of any co-morbidities.
