What is the safest pain reliever to take when you have high blood pressure?
It depends on the hypertension medication. If you want a pain killer that does not increase blood pressure, then paracetamol is a good choice. The worst choice would be anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen and diclofenac. These medications can increase the blood pressure by themselves. In addition, they tend to interact with hypertension medications. For example, these medications increase the risk of renal failure with ACE-inhibitors and sartans, and may also increase the risk of hyperkalaemia with these medications too. Opioid analgesics do not increase blood pressure, however they may interact with anti-hypertensives that are drowsy, such as methyldopa.
Your best bet is to check with a pharmacist or doctor before using anything because it can get very complex.

Why are persons with high blood pressure advised to reduce the amount of salt in their diets?
The more sodium in your blood, the more blood volume increases because sodium attracts and retains water. As a result, the heart has to work harder to move the increased volume of blood through your blood vessels. This creates increased strain on the arteries and high blood pressure. Have you ever eaten a very salty meal and then been thirsty afterwards? That is the salt acting to increase your thirst. Then when you drink something, this fluid adds to the volume of blood inside the blood vessels. This increases blood pressure.

How do you reduce face swelling?
For a quick fix, place two spoons in the freezer for 20 minutes, then hold them under your eyes. The cold will temporarily cause the blood vessels under your eyes to constrict and thus reduce the swelling. For an everyday solution, buy an eye cream that contains caffeine. Not only is using an eye cream one of the best things you can do to fight off wrinkles, but the caffeine in the cream will help to decrease the swelling. Apply morning and night.
Is sauna safe for people with hypertension?
It would be best to have someone go with you to monitor you for light-headedness, dizziness, or anything else that could endanger your safety. The sauna works by dilating your blood vessels on the exterior of your body to facilitate heat exchange (sweat) which in essence should lower your blood pressure temporarily. However, your heart will compensate by trying to pump harder which essentially could exacerbate the symptoms of high blood pressure on the heart muscle itself.
I understand that high blood pressure medication causes you to feel pretty awful but taking your medication regularly is the best way to control it. Weight loss by diet and exercise are also effective at lowering blood pressure and if you are going into the sauna to try and "sweat off" some calories, you would likely be better served by spending the time taking a walk or just being up and active.
