Brief Answer:
Need to control the BP
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank for your query.
I read your message. You just described your mothers BP is shooting up.
Is your mother on any medications for BP?
Check her BP twice a day, both lying down and sitting.
High BP can lead to heart attacks and stroke.
Low salt diet, Regular walking are mandatory along with medications like
calcium channel blockers. Consult a cardiologist once and get an ECHO done.
Get back to me if any query.
