Question

Herman Carson, a 32-year-old male, presents with a severe headache and occasional nosebleeds. Dr. Wells completed an examination recording a blood pressure reading of 180/110. Herman is hospitalized, where an ECG and echocardiogram confirm the diagnosis of malignant hypertension.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on his age and experienced symptoms, Herman Carson is likely suffering from malignant hypertension.

Hypertension an all popular term in the field of medicine is applied when a patient suffers from long-term blood pressure in the arteries which persistently elevates.

Since Herman experienced occasional nosebleed and severe headache it is sign of a very severe form of hypertension called malignant hypertension. A malignant hypertension may result in organ damage with blood pressure that's typically above 180/120.

Answer 2

Although the question is incomplete but i have much interest in answering it, severe hypertension is probably indicative of a pathologic condition.

The bleeding is due to the high blood pressure and probably an injury to either the anterior or middle or posterior cranial fossa of the brain leading to nosebleeding, this means that they could be a hemorhage in the brain.
