Suffering From High Blood Pressure?

Suffering From High Blood Pressure?

High blood pressure qualifies as a heightened systolic (130 and higher) or diastolic (80 and higher). However, healthy numbers may vary for children, adults, and expecting mothers. Also known as hypertension, high blood pressure can be tricky to diagnose and treat because symptoms (headaches, dizziness, head and neck pulsations, anxiety, nosebleeds, shortness of breath) don't often appear until they reach a harmful level. Consult Dr. Dan Hoyumpa at Texan Family Clinic if you have a family history of hypertension, find yourself in many stressful situations, have a poor diet, or have additional signs of high blood pressure in San Antonio, TX.

Suffering From High Blood Pressure? 

Blood pressure is challenging because the only way to know if you have high blood pressure is to measure it daily with an at-home monitor. High blood pressure overworks the heart and blood vessels, and eventually, the increase damages the arteries and surrounding tissues. If not careful, high blood pressure can lead to cardiovascular issues (heart failure, heart attack), or stroke, vision loss, and kidney disease. If you're suffering from high blood pressure, you may be oblivious to signs and symptoms. Dr. Hoyumpa recommends a consultation to discuss treatment options if you have recurring headaches and can't pinpoint the cause, shortness of breath, or dizzy spells. Treatment may include lifestyle changes (diet and exercise), beta-blockers, and limiting smoking or alcohol consumption.

Normal blood pressure is less than 120/80, and it's never too late to improve yours.
