Brief Answer:
For HCM surgery if obstruction is there.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Firstly, for hypertension, there is no cure but can be kept under control. However, if there is some treatable cause which is found in minority of the patients, then it can be cured. You being an young hypertensive you ll first need evaluation for cause of blood pressure. You should undergo test like kidney function test, renal artery Doppler, Sr cortisol and 24 hr Urinary metanephrines. Also get sugars tested. Also, if you are overweight, or even otherwise, then bp can be cured with healthy lifestyle like low salt diet, low fat, calorie diet and regular exercises.

Now, considering you have hypertension, then it's possible that you have hypertensive heart disease rather than HCM. Both looks similar on echo so there may occur confusion between two. So if there are distinctive characters on echo then only the diagnosis is definitive. So please upload your echo report.

Now, considering you have HCM, usually patients lead a normal life and there is no permanent cure to this, but can be kept under control. However, if there is obstruction or too severe disease on echo then may be treated with surgery or alcohol septal ablation. Continue sustameto.

Hope this helps you and back if you have any doubts.
