Hypertension
Managing high blood pressure to protect your heart, kidneys and feet.
High blood pressure, or hypertension, in India often occurs alongside diabetes and greatly raises the risk of heart, kidney and foot problems if left uncontrolled. At EDFC, we manage blood pressure as part of your overall metabolic and diabetes care.
Why does blood pressure matter in diabetes?
High blood pressure and diabetes together sharply increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney damage and poor circulation to the feet. Controlling both protects your whole body. The World Health Organization lists hypertension as a leading cause of cardiovascular disease.
How is high blood pressure managed?
We check your readings, review lifestyle and medicines, and support salt reduction, weight loss and activity. Where needed, treatment is coordinated with your diabetes care and cholesterol control. Reviews continue at our Surat and Vizianagaram clinics.
Can lifestyle lower blood pressure?
Yes. Losing weight, cutting salt, staying active and limiting alcohol can meaningfully lower blood pressure, sometimes reducing the need for medicine. It links closely with our medical weight loss programme. Book a review with our clinic team. This page is educational and not a substitute for a consultation.
