What should I do if I have low blood pressure due to anemia and sometimes suddenly get dizzy?

Anemia is a common clinical symptom in which the volume of peripheral red blood cells decreases below the lower limit of the normal range. Hypertension is a disease characterized by increased systemic arterial pressure and increased resistance of peripheral small blood vessels.

There is no direct relationship between the two, but people with anemia due to long-term chronic blood loss are more likely to have insufficient blood supply to the brain, which can cause symptoms of sudden vertigo. In terms of treatment, it is necessary to treat the original disease and give corresponding drugs to relieve the discomfort.

1. First of all, the cause should be clarified: if the patient has a history of obvious bleeding or peptic ulcer, the possibility of gastrointestinal bleeding should be considered; If there is a significant cardiac lesion or heart failure, it may be related to abnormal heart function. Other possible causes of a drop in blood pressure, such as hypothyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, and so on, should also be ruled out.

2. Secondly, the anemia itself should be treated: for patients with mild to moderate anemia, oral iron and vitamin B12 can be used to supplement hematopoietic raw materials, and at the same time, pay attention to dietary conditioning, and consume more protein-rich foods and fresh vegetables and fruits. Severe anemia requires transfusions of packed red blood cells or other supportive therapies.

3. The following measures can be taken for the acute attack period:

Rest quietly;

It is recommended to stay in bed and avoid strenuous exercise;

Antiemetics can be taken appropriately to reduce symptoms such as nausea and vomiting;

If it is accompanied by dyspnea or other serious complications, you should seek medical attention and receive appropriate treatment.

4. In daily life, we should pay attention to a reasonable dietary structure and ensure adequate nutritional supply, especially supplementing sufficient amounts of iron and other hematopoietic substances. In addition, it is necessary to actively participate in physical exercise to enhance physical fitness and improve immunity.

5. Finally, it is recommended to regularly review the blood routine and other relevant examination indicators, and adjust the treatment plan in time. If the condition recurs or worsens, please be sure to consult a professional doctor and follow the doctor's instructions for standardized treatment.
