Early Signs of Hypertension

Published: Aug 15th, 2010 | Author: admin Add Comment

Unfortunately, in a lot of cases high blood pressure and hypertension is often undetectable until without a visit to the doctor (perhaps this is why they call it the ’silent killer’). However, there are certain symptoms that many hypertension sufferers say they have experienced.

Nose – People with hypertension problems often have nose bleeds and nasal pains. Their blood problems are responsible for carrying more blood than usual to the nose, where it leaks out.

Eyes – In a similar manner, hypertension can force too much blood into the eyes. Patients afflicted with hypertension often have overly bloodshot and reddened eyes. In severe cases, the build up of blood can become so severe that arteries in the eye burst. Signs of blurry or impaired vision may be an early warning of hypertension.

Fatigue – Hypertension can result in people experiencing insomnia and being unable to sleep at night. Because of this, they lack energy during the day and get tired easily. The odd sleepless night in itself is probably nothing to worry about, but if experienced in tandem with other symptoms it could be a sign of high blood pressure. (more…)

What is High Blood Pressure: – Blood pressure is a measure of the force that the blood applies to the walls of the arteries as it flows through them. It’s normal for blood pressure to increase when you exert yourself, or when you feel stressed or anxious. But if your blood pressure is time after time higher than the healthy level when at rest, this is high blood pressure (hypertension). Your blood pressure is at its highest when the heart beats, pumping the blood. This is called systolic pressure. When the heart is at rest, between beats, your blood pressure falls. This is the diastolic pressure.

Blood pressure is characterized by nonstandard pressure levels in the arteries. The blood pressure in a healthy, normal person is 90/60mmhg. When the pressure is lower than the normal, it interferes with the well being of a person. When the pressure increases, it causes damage to the heart and sometimes proves fatal.
