Scientific prevention and treatment of hypertension, these rumors should not be taken lightly

  Hypertension is one of the common chronic diseases . It is also the most important risk factor of various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as cerebral apoplexy and coronary heart disease. Many people have misunderstandings in the prevention and treatment of hypertension. For example: no symptoms of discomfort, blood pressure slightly increased, do not need to take medicine; if you do not have headache and dizziness, hypertension is not serious; drinking red wine can reduce blood pressure, etc. Wu Haiying, chief physician of the national cardiovascular disease center and the hypertension diagnosis and treatment center of Fuwai Hospital, answered the related misunderstandings one by one. Myth 1: if not headache, dizziness, hypertension is not serious. Expert answer: clinically, some patients with hypertension have no symptoms, so we can't judge the blood pressure by symptoms alone. Long term hypertension without effective treatment will lead to heart, brain and kid

There are three signs in the body of patients with hypertension. Doctors suggest: pay attention to three aspects

Introduction: the body is an organic whole. All organs and parts are closely linked. If there is a problem with some of them, there may be a simple presentation in the body. But we tend to ignore these small changes in the body. Especially friends with high blood pressure should pay more attention to their own body. 1、 High blood pressure, the body may appear these three abnormalities 1. Sudden tinnitus If there is frequent intermittent tinnitus and the duration is longer, you should pay attention to it. This may be due to blood pressure surge caused by blood flow too fast, the body did not have time to perceive the location of the blood, the ear suddenly tinnitus phenomenon. When this happens, it's probably high blood pressure. 2. A sudden headache If there is a sharp pain in your head when you get up every morning, especially when you just stand up, you should pay attention to it. This may be because the blood did not flow to the brain stem in time, resulting in transient hypoxi

How to prevent hypertension

1、 Common methods of preventing hypertension From 6 o'clock in the morning to noon, it is the time of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The increase of blood pressure in the morning was more than that in the morning after stress. Exercise moderately. Moderate exercise can improve the performance of cardiovascular system, make the vasomotor tend to normal, and can reduce blood glucose and lipid concentration. Exercise can not only promote blood circulation and reduce cholesterol production, but also enhance the occurrence of muscle, bone and joint stiffness. The best way to exercise is to walk. Quit smoking and limit alcohol. Smoking can cause high blood pressure. Because tobacco contains nicotine (nicotine) will stimulate the central nervous system and sympathetic nerve, accelerate the heart rate, but also promote the adrenal gland to release a large number of catecholamines, so that small arteries contract, resulting in increased blood pressure. The results showed that

What causes hypertension?

There are many factors causing hypertension , such as: long-term high sodium diet, long-term staying up late and tired, excessive eating pressure, pheochromocytoma, renal artery stenosis, primary aldosteronism, genetic factors and so on can lead to hypertension. Primary hypertension is generally difficult to find the cause of disease, but also can not be cured, need lifelong antihypertensive drug symptomatic treatment, secondary hypertension after active treatment of primary disease, blood pressure can gradually return to normal, once identified as hypertension, need active symptomatic treatment, because the harm of hypertension to the body is relatively large, it is recommended to regularly monitor blood pressure changes.

What symptom does the symptom of hypertension have at the beginning

 " The symptoms of hypertension vary from person to person . In the early stage of the disease, the patient may have no symptoms or symptoms are not obvious. Symptoms appear only after fatigue, mental tension and emotional fluctuation, and the body returns to normal after rest. With the development of the course of disease , blood pressure continues to rise, patients will gradually appear a variety of symptoms, such as dizziness, headache, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, dizziness, tinnitus, palpitation, shortness of breath, etc., these symptoms appear more in female patients, in addition, patients will have fingers, toes numbness, fingers inflexible and other special manifestations。

Studies have shown that these foods are good for high blood pressure control, and a healthy diet can treat mild hypertension!

 I have a friend who has high blood pressure. He, like everyone else, is reluctant to take medicine. At that time, his blood pressure did not reach 160 / 100, that is, grade 1 hypertension. I said that we should try diet control first. After three months of diet control, now the blood pressure is about 140 / 90. Although it is not completely normal, it has dropped a lot. I believe that if we continue to adhere to it, we should be able to return to normal. He is not the first person to control the blood pressure drop through diet. I have seen many patients. Through healthy diet, smoking and alcohol cessation, insisting on exercise, regular work and rest, weight control and other comprehensive healthy life, blood pressure finally returned to normal. Of course, diet control plays an important role in controlling blood pressure! Studies have shown that for most hypertensive people, smoking cessation, healthy diet, reducing salt and sugar intake, increasing potassium and fiber intake, stren

Take antihypertensive medicine for a long time, can you affect eyesight?

We should look at this problem from two aspects. According to experts, on the one hand, hypertension may affect the blood supply of retinal blood vessels, including the optic nerve. Therefore, if the blood pressure is regularly lowered and the blood pressure is controlled smoothly, the eye structure will undoubtedly be protected. But on the other hand, we should also consider some adverse effects of antihypertensive drugs themselves, or whether the effect of antihypertensive drugs is ideal. If the effect of antihypertensive drugs is not ideal, the patient's blood pressure is still very high, which is undoubtedly harmful to the eyes. On the other hand, if the blood pressure drops too low, the blood supply to the structure of the eye is affected, which may also affect vision.
