Have you ever heard of secondary hypertension? Perhaps you are strange about the name, but it is a health hazard that we cannot ignore. Today, we are here to unmask the veil of secondary hypertension and to make it known so as to better prevent and control the disease and protect the health of us and our families.
First, let us start with the basic knowledge of hypertension. High blood pressure means that blood pressure continues to rise above 140/90 mmHg without external factors. It is one of the most common chronic diseases and an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Subsequent hypertension means hypertension caused by other diseases or circumstances, unlike primary hypertension (commonly known as “high blood pressure disease”), which has no clear cause.
Remedial hypertension can be caused by a number of causes, including kidney diseases, endocrine anomalies, vascular pathologies and drug side effects. Because of the clear underlying causes, it is theoretically possible to cure or significantly improve hypertension if these primary causes of hypertension can be found and effectively treated. However, secondary hypertension are often overlooked among the general population. This is because its symptoms are similar to those of other types of hypertension and may not even be visible until a certain extent of the disease is detected. This has caused many people to miss the best time for treatment. It is therefore important to understand the common symptoms and risk factors of secondary hypertension.
Common symptoms of secondary hypertension include:
1. High blood pressure occurs earlier, e.g. before the age of 30;
Blood pressure levels are particularly high and are difficult to control with conventional drugs;
High blood pressure is accompanied by other symptoms such as loss of weight, heart palpitation, sweat and respiratory difficulties;
The family has a history of kidney diseases or other related diseases.
If you have the symptoms described above, or if blood pressure control under routine treatment is not ideal, it is recommended that you visit a doctor in a timely manner and undergo a more detailed examination to exclude the possibility of secondary hypertension.
Now let’s look at the common causes of secondary hypertension. First, kidney disease is one of the most common causes of secondary hypertension. The kidneys play an important role in blood pressure regulation, which can increase when the kidney function is impaired. Second, endocrine diseases, such as chromosomal cytotums, increase in primary formaldehydedone, can also cause blood pressure abnormalities. In addition, vascular pathologies, such as constriction of the aorta, as well as the side effects of certain drugs, such as contraceptive pills, and some non-inflammatory drugs, can become “back-to-back” for high blood pressure.
So how do we prevent and control secondary hypertension? First, regular medical examinations are key. Medical examinations allow for the early detection of potential health problems and take appropriate measures. Secondly, a healthy lifestyle is essential for the prevention and control of hypertension. These include a balanced diet, adequate exercise, abdication of alcohol and good mentalities. It is equally important to actively cooperate with doctors in the treatment of pre-incidental causes for patients diagnosed with secondary hypertension. Finally, let us together raise awareness of secondary hypertension, without neglecting any possible health signals, and to have timely access to health care and scientific prevention and treatment measures. Let’s work together to build strong lines of defence for our health and that of our families!
Dear friends, health is the foundation of everything. Let us start today by focusing on secondary hypertension, understanding it, preventing it, controlling it and moving together towards a healthier and better life. If you or your family are suffering from hypertension, you must seek professional medical assistance in a timely manner. Health Road, let’s go!
Serial hypertension.
