Hypertension and renal insufficiency, remember these care elements!

According to authoritative doctors, some patients with hypertension and renal insufficiency do not know why they are sick, but only develop related symptoms of renal insufficiency after suffering from hypertension. For such patients, the first thing to do is to go to the hospital for formal treatment, and secondly, pay attention to some things in life.

1. Eat a light breakfast

Breakfast should be light, you can choose 1 cup of milk or soy milk, 1 egg, 1 slice of bread.

2. Don’t get out of bed right after you wake up

It is advisable to get up slowly. Do not get out of bed immediately after waking up in the morning. Lie in bed for a while and move your head, neck, and upper limbs to adapt to the changes in body position when getting up.

3. Low salt and oil

The diet should be low in salt and oil. Do not add ingredients or food at will just for the sake of taste and satisfy your appetite.

4. Appropriate exercise

Exercise should be done according to one's ability, and should be done in moderation. Vigorous activities are not advisable. Mild activities are helpful in relieving arterial tension.

5. Avoid brain tension

It is not advisable to write at a desk for a long time, because it will make the brain too tense and easily induce high blood pressure.

6. Eat less for dinner

Dinner should be small, about 70% full. Do not eat only rice, but have some soup or porridge.

7. Take a bath with warm water

It is best to use warm water for bathing. Water that is too hot or too cold will stimulate the sensory organs of the skin, causing vasodilation, thus affecting blood pressure. It is best to use warm water of about 40°C for bathing, washing face, and gargling.
