If an underlying illness is causing hypertension, treating that illness may be enough to get the blood pressure back to normal. the doctor may recommend weight loss, increased intake of fruits and vegetables, decreased salt intake, increased exercise, and even relaxation techniques to control high BP. staying fit is the key to both weight and blood pressure control. Only in the unusual situation when hypertension is very severe would exercise be restricted, and then it should be resumed after control with medications.
