What Is Fibromuscular Dysplasia?
10. Treatment
Treatment of fibromuscular dysplasia will depend on a number of factors. One is the severity of the symptoms it is causing. In many cases, medication is prescribed that will help to regulate the patient’s blood pressure. Medication that helps to relax the blood vessels may also be used.
A number of other medications may also be used, but surgery may be deemed necessary in some cases. Surgery may include an angioplasty, which means using a balloon to help widen the blood vessel. A similar procedure can also help prevent the artery walls from rupturing. Surgery to repair damage to artery walls may also be necessary in some cases.
