HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
High Blood Pressure Treatment in Tiruppur
We confirm whether your BP is really high, check the heart and kidneys, look for a hidden cause when needed, and choose medicines that keep it controlled.
ADULT BP CARE
Hypertension Treatment in Tiruppur
Hypertension is a long-term condition in which blood pressure remains higher than normal, increasing strain on the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and other organs.
High BP usually causes no symptoms. A clinic reading of 140/90 or more on more than one visit, or home readings of 135/85 or more, means high BP.
At our BP clinic, Dr. Tushyanth V looks at your readings, other illnesses and current medicines, including painkillers and some cold medicines that can raise BP.
Care includes:
TYPES & CAUSES
Types of High BP We Treat
Most high BP has no single cause, but in some people a treatable cause is found.
High Blood Pressure
Most people with high BP feel well. Headache isn't a reliable sign, and leg swelling is often a tablet side effect or a heart or kidney sign.
24-Hour BP Monitoring
A small cuff records your BP through a full day and night, showing whether it is high only in the clinic, only outside it, or at night.
High BP Under 40
In younger adults, high BP can have a treatable cause, like a kidney or hormone problem. We test for these before starting lifelong tablets.
Hormone-Related High BP
Blood tests for excess aldosterone (aldosterone-renin ratio) and thyroid problems, and tests for Cushing's syndrome when it is suspected.
BP and Kidney Disease
Good BP control slows kidney damage. We choose BP medicines that protect the kidneys, and check your creatinine and potassium regularly.
Narrowed Kidney Arteries
Suspected when BP rises suddenly, is very hard to control, or kidney function drops on some BP tablets. We refer you for a renal Doppler.
Hard-to-Control BP
BP above target despite three medicines, including a water tablet. We first check missed doses, salt and technique, then look for a cause.
SIGNS & EVALUATION
When to Get Your BP Checked
High BP usually has no symptoms, so check it at least once a year after 30, and see a doctor if:
Your BP is 140/90 or more on two readings
Home readings are above 135/85
You have diabetes or kidney disease
You have high BP before 40
Your BP stays high on medicines
A parent had a heart attack or stroke at a young age
Emergency: Go to emergency or call 108 now if high BP comes with chest pain, sudden breathlessness, weakness of one side, slurred speech, severe headache with vomiting, or confusion.
YOUR VISITS
How High BP Is Treated Here
From your first reading to steady BP, here is what to expect.
Your first visit
We check BP in both arms, ask about salt, sleep, alcohol, smoking and medicines, and look at your home BP readings from the last week.
Tests on the same day
Creatinine, potassium and sodium, sugar, cholesterol, a urine test and an ECG, with a 24-hour BP test or hormone tests only when needed.
Your treatment plan
Salt, weight and activity changes for everyone, and one or two medicines for most. The usual target is below 130/80, if you tolerate it.
Regular follow-up
We see you every 2 to 4 weeks until your BP is controlled, then every 3 to 6 months. Please bring your home BP readings to every visit.

ABOUT THE PHYSICIAN
High BP Care with Dr. Tushyanth V
Dr. Tushyanth V treats high BP in adults, including BP that starts before 40, BP with diabetes or kidney disease, and BP that stays high on medicines.
He compares your clinic and home readings, and looks for hidden causes such as excess aldosterone before adding more tablets.
If your clinic and home readings don't agree, he may suggest a 24-hour BP test before starting or changing tablets, so treatment is based on your real BP.
HIGH BP FAQS
High BP Questions Answered
Do I need an appointment?
Booking is better. Avoid tea, coffee and smoking for 30 minutes before your visit, since they raise the reading.
What should I bring to my first visit?
All your BP tablets or their strips, your home readings for the last week, and recent reports. If you have a home BP machine, bring it so we can check it against ours.
Which home BP machine should I buy, and how do I use it?
An automatic upper-arm machine, not a wrist one. Sit for five minutes with your back supported and your arm at heart level. Take two readings in the morning and two at night for a week before your visit.
Can I stop my BP tablets once my BP is normal?
Usually no. Normal readings on tablets mean the tablets are working. Some people who lose weight and cut salt can reduce the dose, but only with a doctor checking the BP.
Can the cause of high BP be found?
In most adults there is no single cause. A common hidden cause is excess aldosterone, which a simple blood test (aldosterone-renin ratio) can pick up, even when potassium is normal. We also look for other causes if you are under 40, or your BP is very high or hard to control.
When do I need a 24-hour BP test?
When your clinic and home readings don't agree, when BP is borderline and we need to decide on tablets, when BP stays high despite medicines, or when you feel dizzy on tablets. You wear the cuff for 24 hours, including while you sleep, and return the device the next day. Keep your arm still when the cuff inflates, and don't bathe while wearing it.
How often do I need a follow-up?
Every 2 to 4 weeks until your BP is controlled, then every 3 to 6 months.
