Answer 6

Can MSG cause BP to spike suddenly?

Comments

Hello, among the known causes, genetic and environmental factors can lead to hypertension. Lifestyle factors that help lower blood pressure include reducing salt intake in the diet, eating more fruits and low-fat products, exercising, losing weight and drinking less alcoholic beverages. Other factors that may contribute to hypertension, such as stress, caffeine intake, and insulin resistance, which is common in obesity, are also thought to contribute to the deterioration of hypertension. Recent studies have also pointed out that early childhood events (such as low birth weight, smoking during pregnancy, high PM2.5 exposure [36] and lack of breast-feeding) are risk factors for adult essential hypertension. However, MSG has not been shown to be directly related to hypertension.

170/90 is too high, numbers higher than 140/90 is considered high blood pressure and needs treatment.

For high blood pressure, you should see a doctor first. Your doctor may recommend you take Nifedipine and other antihypertensive drugs to control it. For nose bleeds, you can put cotton balls in your nose to compress the bleeding area.

Answer 8

My pressure is 127/92 and i have a poundin in my ear with headaches

Comments

Hi, the diastolic is over 90, it's one of the possbile causes to the headache. My suggestion - try to lower the BP to normal range, i.e. the bottom number below 90. If the headache and pounding ear don't disappear at a normal BP, you go see an otolaryngologist.

Answer 9

My BP is 203/113 it stays high I have been on BP meds and have changed my diet

Answer 10

I missed my blood pressure pill for 2 days and started back on the 3rd day. The 4th day my right eye was blood shot red. Is this normal or cause for concern? My BP is regulated now but it felt it may have been high on the 3rd day when I started my meds.

Comments

Hello Mr. Smith, when your BP was high, the pressure caused damage to the blood vessel in the eyes, this can lead to bleeding, that's why your right eye looks so red. Damage to eye blood vessel is a common complication of high BP. Such damage can be very serious sometimes, ideally you need to get evaluated by an eye doctor. If you notice blurred vision, you'll have to get medical support asap, since it can lead to loss of vision.
