Increased pressure is familiar to every personsomeone is ill himself, someone has relatives or friends. Every second adult sooner or later faces a similar problem. But the lower - a rare phenomenon and more common among young people and a small number of older people. A similar diagnosis, hypotension, is placed at a pressure below normal by 10–20 mm Hg. That is, blood pressure is 100 by 60, often found in adolescents and young people, is already hypotension. But in some cases this is the norm, in some - a dangerous symptom of serious health problems.
Symptoms
People with this diagnosis rarely measure pressure andthey usually learn about his fall by unpleasant symptoms: regular weakness, unexpected dizziness, constant drowsiness, tremors in the limbs, headache, darkening of the eyes, etc. public transportation is not the most pleasant thing for them.
Types and causes
Гипотония может проявиться остро (резкое падение pressure as a result of problems with the work of the heart or with an incorrect intake of a certain class of drugs) or to occur chronically (constant and without sudden changes). This happens when myocardial infarction, various problems with the work of the SS, with a large dosage of drugs to reduce pressure after surgery or after a large loss of blood. In such cases, there will be a pressure of 100 at 60 or lower.
Hypotension happens to be primary, maybe likea hereditary phenomenon (that is, low pressure is a normal state) or a side effect of lifestyle (often found in athletes for whom physical loadings are normal) or secondary (not a disease, but a formidable symptom of pathological processes in the body). For example, for adolescents and older youth, a pressure of 100 to 60 is the norm, the result of an incompletely formed SS and endocrine systems. Such pressure may persist throughout life. In these cases, there is no need for treatment, it is only important to further stimulate the body.
Treatment
If a man first learned that his pressurelower than everyone else, and even more so, if the pulse is also low, it needs to find out how much this state is normal for him, and whether there is a more dangerous root cause of this state.
To do this, you should visit the hospital and holdresearch. The visit will be much more effective if, prior to coming to the doctor, to conduct an observation, measuring the pressure at home during the day (3-4 times) for a week or more. Thus, it becomes clear how often the patient has a pressure of 100 to 60, whether it is lower or higher, in which cases and after which activity. Next, the doctor must find out the gender and type of activity of the patient, his lifestyle, nutrition, eliminate problems with the work of internal organs (CVS study, thyroid hormone, adrenal hormones, etc.) and only then, proceeding from all the data, assign treatment.
If it turns out that such indicators are the norm forThis person, for example, pressure 100 to 65, is prescribed annual blood pressure control and lifestyle adjustment. It is necessary to be active, to go in for sports, nutrition should be balanced and full, more fresh air, normal working conditions, rest corresponding to loads.
If the cause of such indicators of arterialpressure is an internal problem, naturally without the help of a cardiologist, a neurologist and an endocrinologist can not do. It is necessary to put in order the heart, blood vessels, hormonal parameters, the work of the kidneys.
But, if after normal indicators the pressure of 100 is sharply 60 and lower, man begins to lose consciousness histhe state of health is deteriorating rapidly, there is no time to think, time is running for minutes, an ambulance is urgently needed to save his life. Fall below 80/50 or a sharp decrease in the upper or lower pressure of more than 5-10 mm Hg. it is very dangerous, since the blood supply to vital organs is deteriorating, the brain can be particularly affected.
In any case, without normalization and improvementlifestyle is not enough. The doctor will prescribe vitamin complexes, physiotherapy (acupuncture, stimulating procedures). Most likely, stimulating drugs will be prescribed - tincture of ginseng, eleutherococcus, decoctions of herbs that increase blood pressure.
