How to Prevent Falls and Injuries Associated with Idiopathic Orthostatic Hypotension
As someone who experiences idiopathic orthostatic hypotension, I've learned a few tips to prevent falls and injuries. First, I make sure to rise slowly from sitting or lying down to give my body time to adjust to the change in position. I also stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet, as both help to regulate blood pressure. Regular exercise has been beneficial for my balance and overall strength. Lastly, I've made my home environment safer by removing tripping hazards and installing grab bars in key areas.
