Symptoms of very high blood pressure: 4 possible organ damage due to hypertension

0

Very high blood pressure, also known as acute hypertension, can cause some damage to internal organs.

High blood pressure that a person can suffer from often has no noticeable symptoms, but very high blood pressure, which is caused by urgent hypertensive disease, can lead to the appearance of some alarming signs. Experts from Michigan Medicine, which is part of the University of Michigan Health Care, warn about this.

“When the pressure is consistently too high, the heart has to work harder to push blood around the body. Over time, this can cause a heart attack,” the doctors remind.

Speaking of the symptoms of very high pressure as a manifestation of acute hypertensive disease, doctors explain that they are closely related to the organ damage caused by this condition.

“Very high blood pressure can cause damage to the brain, heart, eyes or kidneys,” the experts listed.

Symptoms of such damage include the following changes in a person's well-being.

• Numbness
• Blurred vision
• Chest pain
• Severe headache< /li>
• Disorientation.

Which blood pressure range is considered normal and which is high?

• High is considered blood pressure that is 140 per 90 and above (150 per 90 and above, if a person is over 80 years old).
• Parameters from 90 per 60 to 120 per 80 are considered ideal blood pressure.

“Blood pressure readings between 120/80 and 140/90 may mean you are at risk of developing hypertension and should continue to monitor it.”

To lower high blood pressure pressure at the initial stage of hypertension, it is necessary to move enough and follow a certain diet. The Mayo Clinic recommends that a diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products and low in saturated fat can help lower blood pressure by 10-11 points.
