1. Treatment objectives and principles

The ultimate goal of antihypertensive treatment is to reduce the incidence and mortality of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in patients with hypertension. Antihypertensive treatment should establish blood pressure control target values. On the other hand, hypertension often coexists with other risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as hypercholesterolemia, obesity, diabetes, etc., which synergistically increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Treatment measures should be comprehensive.

(1) Improve lifestyle behaviors ① Lose weight. ②Reduce sodium intake. ③Supplement calcium and potassium salts. ④Reduce fat intake. ⑤Increase exercise. ⑥Quit smoking and limit drinking.

(2) Individualization of blood pressure control standards Due to different causes and different pathogenesis of hypertension, clinical medication should be treated differently and the most appropriate drug and dosage should be selected to obtain the best therapeutic effect.

(3) Collaborative control of multiple cardiovascular risk factors: Although blood pressure is controlled within the normal range after antihypertensive treatment, multiple risk factors other than elevated blood pressure still have an important impact on prognosis.

2. Antihypertensive drug treatment

(1) Types of antihypertensive drugs: ① Diuretics. ②β-receptor blockers. ③Calcium channel blockers. ④Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. ⑤Angiotensin II receptor blockers.

(2) Treatment options Most patients without complications or comorbidities can use thiazide diuretics, beta-blockers, etc. alone or in combination. Treatment should start with a low dose and increase gradually. In actual clinical use, the patient's cardiovascular risk factors, target organ damage, complications, comorbidities, antihypertensive efficacy, adverse reactions, etc. will all affect the choice of antihypertensive drugs. Patients with stage 2 hypertension can be treated with a combination of two antihypertensive drugs from the beginning.

The above specifically introduces the treatment methods for back of the head pain caused by high blood pressure. After a comprehensive understanding, many patients who experience this symptom must pay attention to it to avoid serious consequences. It is recommended to choose a large hospital for treatment, so that the treatment effect will be better.
