Symptoms of high pressure everyone should know. Sometimes, high blood pressure is almost never seen. Nevertheless, it has a devastating impact on all organs and tissues. It is therefore important to identify the initial symptoms of high blood pressure and seek medical advice.

Why increases the pressure

The most common blood pressure (BP) begins to rise during high emotional stress, stress. Contribute to the factors such as overweight, sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy diet. Developing the disease with spasm of the blood vessels, which are unstable and are aggravated by stress. Eventually there comes a persistent spasm of blood vessels, and then in the walls of blood vessels occur sclerotic changes (growing connective tissue), they are narrow and winding. Disrupted blood flow to all organs and tissues, sclerotic changes in them, and reduced function.

Sometimes, high blood pressure is a sign of some other disease - kidney, adrenal gland, thyroid gland, the hypothalamus, and so on. Therefore, a patient with high blood pressure carefully examine and identify all the possible causes of this phenomenon. If any other disease except for the high pressure is not revealed, then we speak of essential hypertension or hypertension. It is believed that the persistent increase in blood pressure to 140/90 mm Hg It is already a sign of the disease.

What are the symptoms of high pressure

Initially, the disease manifests itself in the form of vague symptoms - a "heavy head" moderate headaches of growing horizontally. Such patients often wake up in the morning with a headache Headache Not slept since the night before can not sleep. The movement, especially in the fresh air, the headaches are reduced or completely.

There are irritability, anxiety and other symptoms of neurosis. Violations of the autonomic nervous system give rise to heart attacks, heart pains, dizziness. All of this can take place and quietly erased, and can significantly disturb the patient and cause them to fear of sudden death. But sometimes high blood pressure generally does not manifest itself, and this is very dangerous, because the first symptoms can be symptoms of complications in the internal organs.

In the later stages of the fore symptoms of complications. If suffering is mainly the heart, symptoms such as shortness of breath, swelling, pain in the heart, sometimes - angina (high blood pressure is almost always accompanied by the development of atherosclerosis). Persistent cerebral blood flow leads to lower memory, concentration, willful violations. The gradual decline in renal function leads to a slow poisoning organism toxic products of metabolism, the patient's condition is deteriorating due to poisoning - nausea, malaise, sustained reduction in performance.

Symptoms of very high pressure

Very high blood pressure is usually manifested in the form of attacks, which are called hypertensive crises. Symptoms of a hypertensive crisis occur when a sudden increase in systolic (top) pressure - 20-100 mm Hg diastolic (lower) - 10-50 mm Hg

There are two types of hypertensive crises. The crisis of the first type is characterized by rapid onset and shows a sharp headache, a feeling of rush of blood to the face, head, heat, shaking the whole body, cold hands and feet, dry mouth, cold sweat appearance. The attack is accompanied by a moderate rise in blood pressure and rapid urination ends with the release of large amounts of urine. These attacks are characteristic of the early stages of the disease, for which no further changes in the internal organs.

Crease the second type is developing much more slowly, blood pressure can gradually increase during the day. Spasm of the blood vessels leads to stepping liquid part of blood into the extracellular space and the appearance of edema. This swelling of the tissues of the brain causes symptoms such crisis as a growing headache, nausea and vomiting, blurred vision, transient blindness, double vision, the appearance of "flies" before his eyes, a feeling of pins and needles, numbness of the hands, face, lips, tongue, weakness in hands and feet.

Develop and transient sensory disturbances and movements that can hold not only during a crisis, but also a longer time.
