Many people have this question: Can patients with hypertension take high-speed trains? Let us find out below.

The temperature is rising and the air is fresh. Traveling at the right time is of great benefit to your health. However, for patients with hypertension, they should pay attention to the following aspects when traveling in spring:

1. You must have a correct understanding of this disease. Do not underestimate it, and don't be frightened by it. You must have an optimistic attitude and cooperate with the doctor in treatment.

2. Families with the conditions should have a sphygmomanometer and stethoscope, and master the correct measurement method under the guidance of a doctor or nurse. They should measure blood pressure once a day on average, preferably in the early morning or after 12 minutes of quiet rest.

3. Do not change medications on your own, and do not stop taking medications at will.

4. Pay attention to the combination of work and rest, don’t be too excited, and don’t lose anger easily; eat less greasy food, eat more fruits and vegetables, and drink more water.

5. Don’t forget to bring medicine when you go out.

6. No matter when, where or under what circumstances, if you feel unwell, such as dizziness, headache, blacking out, unsteady walking and other symptoms, you should stop exercising immediately, sit down on the spot to prevent falls or accidents, and call the medical emergency number in time according to the situation.

Dietary considerations for patients with hypertension: Patients with hypertension should eat more potassium-rich foods. Such as rapeseed, spinach, Chinese cabbage and tomatoes. Eating foods containing potassium can not only protect myocardial cells, but also alleviate the adverse consequences caused by eating too much sodium. However, when hypertension is complicated by renal insufficiency, it is not advisable to eat foods rich in potassium, otherwise it will cause excessive accumulation of potassium in the body due to oliguria, leading to heart rhythm disorders and even cardiac arrest. Patients with hypertension should limit their intake of high-fat foods to prevent increased cholesterol. Because hypertension, hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis are often causally related or occur in the same patient.
