Hypotension


Hypotension

Hypotension

  Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is a medical condition in which a person's blood pressure the force of the blood against the artery walls  is low. In general, a value below 90,60 mm Hg is considered hypotension. Hypotension can range from a minor difficulty requiring no medical treatment to a very serious and fatal condition.

There are two types of hypotension:

 Orthostatic hypotension and chronic hypotension:

 Orthostatic hypotension

 occurs when a person's blood pressure drops when standing. This sudden drop in pressure is caused by gravity pulling blood away from the heart. As a result, a person may experience dizziness, lightheadedness or, in extreme cases, fainting. This type of hypotension is often seen in older adults, but it can also occur in younger people, especially if they stand up .

 Chronic hypotension

 occurs when a person's blood pressure is below normal, even when sitting or lying down. Chronic hypotension can have many causes, from anemia and dehydration to detoxification or shock. Besides, some people may have a congenital condition that causes low blood pressure due to deficiencies in their organs or circulatory system.

symptoms:

The symptoms of hypotension can vary from person to person. Generally speaking, people with hypotension may experience dizziness, fatigue, blurred vision, and difficulty concentrating. Some people may also experience nausea, weakness and fainting. Although many people with hypotension do not need to be treated, there are cases where treatment is warranted. If the person is dehydrated, electrolyte replacement may be necessary. If orthostatic hypotension causes fainting, medication may be prescribed. These medications are designed to help the patient remain stable even when standing. In cases of chronic hypotension, doctors may prescribe medications to help regulate blood pressure levels, as well as lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise and a healthy diet.

Treating hypotension is a simple process, but it's important to remember that it can be a very serious condition in itself or an indicator of an underlying health problem. If you think you or someone else may have hypotension, it is important to contact your healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment. Hypotension can be a sign of something serious and should always be taken by a doctor.

Self,pressure helps us stay focused and makes us strive for success in our lives. It can also help us use our resources time, money etc to the best of our ability. But, if we overburden ourselves with too much pressure, it can lead to burnout, depression and anxiety.

Social, family, political cultural and work pressures are too many to mention. These pressures can be beneficial by helping us gain an advantage in a competitive world.A certain amount of external pressure keeps us in check and prevents us from becoming complacent. but other hand, external pressures are known to have a negative effect on an individual's productivity.
