Elevated blood pressure
Hello Docors, My mom has bilateral knee osteoarthritis. She is obese and weighs around the 79kg and she is 49 years old. We had consulted a local orthopedic doctor and got prescribed some medicines like Rejuprix cd3, Duraglide max, Altraday tablet, uprise D3 60k. After taking those for around 10 days, since we didn't see any improvement in pain, we consulted the doctor again. Then, she got kenacort 1ml injection on her left knee and she has been taking medicines also. Now, we consulted another physician and got prescribed tide 10, febumac 40,naprosyn 500. Currently, she is not taking Altraday pain killer medicine. But, we are seeing a spike in her blood pressure and staying around 140/90 most of the times in a day. Previously, she had always low bp. We are suspecting whether it's kenacort steroid injection caused the spike in blood pressure and she is also tensed due to knee pain issues as well as blood pressure. Please advise us accordingly.
