What causes the differences in blood pressure and what you need to know about the treatment?

Very bad for the body when blood pressure is low, even worse when it is high. However, the differences in blood pressure are the most dangerous for a person, instantly affecting the state of health. Moreover, sudden pressure surges can trigger the development of a stroke or cause a heart attack. Currently, this condition is given treatment, we will consider what is needed for this.

Blood pressure changes: What is the danger?

Even in a healthy person, the pressure changes throughout the day, then increasing, then decreasing. However, this is considered quite normal and does not cause any harm to human health. In this case, sudden pressure jumps can cause irreparable harm.

The explanation for this is quite simple: the vessels, which have a huge load in case of sudden pressure drops, can simply not stand it and burst, which can lead to heart attack, stroke or other problems. And if the elastic walls of the vessels of a healthy person are still able to withstand pressure jumps with a minimal risk of possible complications, then hypertensive patients with experience or in elderly people have brittle, compacted vessels with a narrow lumen, so the possibility of their rupture is at a high level.

For hypotensive patients, sharp pressure drops also carry a danger, which, with insufficient supply of oxygen and nutrients to the organs, is the possibility of developing hypoxia or disturbing the function of the tissues.
In the event that you have observed changes in blood pressure - the causes and treatment are interrelated. If you do not determine the cause of the disease, then get rid of the problem will not work.

Reasons for

Together with the pressure jumps, the person's state of health rides, and his mood. The causes of changes in blood pressure are as follows:

• Endocrine disorders, which is more typical of women. Hormonal changes and leaps in hormone levels in the body, occurring in the premenstrual or menopausal period, can lead to sudden pressure rises.
• Stress, lack of sleep, overwork, emotional distress can also cause increased pressure and the development of hypertensive crisis.
• Diseases of the stomach, kidneys and adrenal glands.
• Weather Sensitivity. A sharp change in weather conditions, the change of time zones or the climate zone can cause pressure fluctuations and hypertensive crises in people predisposed to adverse weather conditions.
• The presence of excess weight, in which cholesterol accumulates on the walls of the vessels, has a negative effect on the cardiovascular activity of the body.
• Incorrect way of life, smoking, alcohol abuse, low level of physical activity, which leads to a worsening of the vascular condition;
• Nutrition, in which a person abuses salty foods, drinks with caffeine, can cause pressure surges.
• Taking some medications, one of the side effects of which is the effect on blood pressure.
• Osteochondrosis, curvature of the spine lead to jamming of blood vessels and nerve endings, which causes blood circulation disorders and pressure jumps.

Also one of the causes of pressure changes is called vegeto-vascular dystonia. And although officially this disease is not registered, a tenth of patients have such a diagnosis. The disease is caused by a violation of the autonomic nervous system and a violation of blood circulation.

And this is far from all factors influencing pressure. For example, the question: why there are sharp differences in blood pressure in the elderly, the answer is quite obvious - with age, the whole body grows old, and the vessels, among others. Their elasticity decreases, the vessels become flaccid, with atherosclerotic plaques.

Signs of pressure surges

Very often, patients may not even suspect the presence of high blood pressure. However, pressure jumps are usually quite noticeable.

With a sharp increase in pressure, a person usually feels:

• there is a severe headache, pain in the eyes, tinnitus;
• face can become bright red or, conversely, very pale;
• appears dizziness;
• can feel heat, sweating appears;
• appears chest pain;
• heartbeat is becoming more frequent;
• may have impaired movement;
• appears nausea.

With a sharp decrease in pressure, the following symptoms are observed:

• in a person darkens in the eyes;
• there is a sudden nausea;
• there is a headache;
• drowsiness, weakness;
• may develop a fainting condition or fainting.

The difference in blood pressure from high to low is particularly dangerous if this occurs against the background of an allergic reaction or an existing infectious disease. In this case, the patient may faint due to a decrease in vascular tone. This can lead to serious injuries if fainting occurs in the workplace, for example, in construction, at altitude, or when the mechanism is switched on. The situation can become even more tragic if the public transport driver loses consciousness. In this case, it will be not only about human health, but also about the lives of pedestrians and passengers.

What should I do if there is a sudden increase in pressure?

Timely detection of the cause of pressure surges will make treatment of blood pressure changes effective.

If you have symptoms that indicate a sudden increase in pressure, ventilate the room, lie down and try to calm down. If there is a possibility to measure the indices of blood pressure, then it is necessary to do this.

If you are diagnosed with "hypertension", you need to take such measures:

• take your usual antihypertensive drug. Maybe it's corinfar, nifedipine, enalapril, acuzide, amlodipine;
• if you have not yet been prescribed a medicine, take a diuretic, such as furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide;
• make a "cocktail" from the pharmacy tinctures of hawthorn, valerian, motherwort and corvalol or valocordinum, taking them in equal amounts. Dilute a teaspoon of this cocktail in a quarter of a glass of water and drink. If you have only one of these facilities at home, then at least take it.

In addition, hypertensive patients should stick to a salt-free diet, exclude drinks containing caffeine, give up alcohol and cigarettes, control the amount of liquid drunk.

What should I do if the pressure drops drastically?

If the pressure measurement is too low, the following should be done: Article

• A hypotonic with "experience" usually has at hand a familiar medication that helps raise low blood pressure: heptamyl, niketamide or norepinephrine;
• if the doctor has not prescribed a medicine yet, drink a cup of coffee or strong sweet tea to dilate the blood vessels, which will lead to increased pressure;
• eat candy, a little sugar or glucose pharmacy tablets;
• Hold a portion of a teaspoon of salt under the tongue until completely dissolved.

Hypotonics are undesirable to get up abruptly in the morning from bed, you need to get up slowly. Very useful will be a regular contrast shower, full sleep and rest, exercise.

In case you had an attack for the first time, and you do not have a blood pressure monitor and it is not possible to measure the pressure, do not experiment with the medication so as not to worsen your condition. Before the arrival of a doctor, it is better just to calm down and lie down in a ventilated room.

Review # 1

Hypertension has been diagnosed for a long time. The last 20 years I'm trying to fight it, and for a long time I did it. Healthy lifestyle, healthy eating, no bad habits, gym - I managed to keep the situation under control. But age, apparently, makes itself felt. Now the pressure jumps.

I have never loved honey or a dog rose. It turned out in vain. Here, I get used to the new diet regime - fasting honey and dog rose tea at the first opportunity. I can say for sure that the methods help, in addition, such a medicine is very pleasant to take. Pressure jumps have become very rare.
