At Viva Hospital, under the care of Dr. Tushyanth V, we provide comprehensive evaluation and management of hypertension, one of the most common and serious health concerns today. Hypertension, or high blood pressure, occurs when the force of blood against the walls of the arteries remains consistently too high. Over time, this extra pressure damages blood vessels and vital organs such as the heart, brain, and kidneys. Because it often shows no symptoms, hypertension is rightly called the “silent killer.”
Many people are unaware that they have high blood pressure until it causes complications like heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, or vision loss. That’s why regular check-ups and early detection are so important. At Viva Hospital, we encourage patients to monitor their blood pressure regularly and seek medical guidance if they have risk factors such as family history, obesity, unhealthy diet, stress, lack of exercise, smoking, or alcohol consumption.
Dr. Tushyanth provides a personalized approach to managing hypertension. The first step involves a detailed consultation, accurate blood pressure monitoring, and, when necessary, further tests to identify related health risks. Based on the findings, each patient receives a tailored treatment plan designed to control blood pressure and protect overall health.
Treatment often begins with lifestyle changes, which play a key role in preventing and controlling hypertension. Patients are guided on following a balanced, low-salt diet, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, managing stress, and avoiding smoking or excessive alcohol. When lifestyle changes alone are not enough, Dr. Tushyanth prescribes the most suitable medications to bring blood pressure under control and reduce the risk of complications.
Follow-up and patient education are central to care at Viva Hospital. Patients are encouraged to stay consistent with their treatment, track their progress, and make gradual but sustainable lifestyle improvements.
By combining medical expertise with compassionate care, Dr. Tushyanth ensures that patients with hypertension not only control their blood pressure but also improve their long-term quality of life.
