Can acute sinusitis increase blood pressure?

Plz help ASAP.. How to naturally increase blood pressure?

  • I have a patient in my home.. my mom. She is highly ill. She's been operated lately, yesterday. It was fine but all of a sudden today her blood pressure went seriously low. It is around 97/27. We are all very much worried. Right now she's in hospital and doctors are trying to raise the blood pressure. She had so much saline water injected in her blood. So hydration is there. But no one knows why it isn't becoming normal. As a remedy she had several bottles of saline water injected and other medicines. But nothing seems to be working. Also, she had a stomach operation (HURNIA), so she isn't allowed to eat anything. And there are only medicines and saline water supplied to her body since almost 15 to 20 days. No food intake at all! PLEASE HELP!!!! What to do now? When should she be given something to eat? It's been more than 24 hours from operation. Can she be given food now? What kind of food? How should we increase the blood pressure??? HELP US!!! PLZ.. I WILL PRAY FOR YOU A LOT IF YOU DO HELP US.. I WILL BE GRATEFUL!!!

  • Answer:

    Rather than just increasing her blood pressure artificially, they will probably be looking for the reason why it's dropped that low. It may be indicative of a bleed after her operation, sepsis or even heart failure. The saline should help just by virtue of increasing her blood volume and if they think it's shock or sepsis they may use a sympathomimetic such as dobutamine or dopamine HCl, or a vasoconstrictor such as phenylephrine. In any case I hope she's ok I hope i helped
