At present, there are 654.38+600 million hypertensive patients in China, and hypertension has become the "first killer" of people's health in China. Hypertension is usually asymptomatic, and a few people may have dizziness, headache or nosebleeds. Whether there is hypertension or the degree of hypertension is not parallel to whether there are symptoms or the degree of symptoms. Many patients will not feel uncomfortable even if they have high blood pressure for many years. So the greater harm of hypertension is that it is a "silent killer", so most hypertension is found in physical examination or medical treatment for other diseases.
Once found, no matter how serious it is, we should treat it as soon as possible. The systemic arterioles in patients with hypertension are in a state of spasm. Repeated and long-term arteriolar spasm and hypertension make the intima of arterioles appear vitreous lesions due to pressure load, ischemia and hypoxia. With the development of the disease course, the lesion involves the middle layer of arteriole, which eventually leads to thickening, hardening and narrowing of the lumen, showing irreversible lesions. Hypertension promotes arteriolar lesions, and lumen stenosis after arteriolar lesions promotes hypertension.
First, adjust the mood: keep a relaxed and happy mood and avoid excessive tension. It is best to rest for 5 ~ 1 0 minutes after working1hour, and adjust your nerves by doing exercises and walking. When you are depressed and angry, you should divert your attention and relax in a relaxed and happy way. Most people avoid emotional excitement and anger to prevent cerebral hemorrhage.
2. Moderate diet: We should control our daily diet and eat less fat, sweets and salt. The diet is mainly light and eat more fruits and vegetables. Avoid overeating. The intake of salt should not exceed 5 grams per day. Salt will retain water, increase blood volume and increase the burden on the heart. Obese people should control their food intake and calories to lose weight. To keep a good sleep, soak your feet with warm water before going to bed, and avoid reading novels and watching horror movies and TV. Keep defecation unobstructed. Sexual life makes people in a state of high excitement, nervous and vascular tension, and even cause a stroke, so we should control * * * and be careful about sexual intercourse.
3. Quit smoking and drink less: Nicotine can contract tiny blood vessels, make the heart beat faster and raise blood pressure; Drinking a small amount can expand microcircuits and increase blood vessel elasticity, which has certain benefits. Advocate quitting smoking and drinking less. But drinking a lot of alcohol and hard liquor is definitely harmful.
4. Combination of work and rest: If you are engaged in stressful work, you should master the adjustment of emotions, pay attention to the combination of work and rest, strive for more rest, and avoid harmful chronic effects such as noise. Rest includes mental and physical rest. Physical labor and strenuous exercise should not be emphasized. Load-bearing, long-distance running and carrying heavy objects should be prohibited. But light physical labor can, and long-term bed rest is not good.
5. Insist on exercise: Tai Ji Chuan and Qigong should be played once every morning and evening, which can improve blood circulation, reduce peripheral resistance and lower blood pressure.
6. Insist on taking medicine: It is very important to insist on taking medicine for hypertension in the middle and late stages. If a drug becomes resistant and fails, other drugs should be replaced in time. If you don't follow the doctor's advice and stop taking the medicine at will, your blood pressure will rise sharply, which is very dangerous. Take your blood pressure regularly at ordinary times.
Matters needing attention in daily life of patients with hypertension
Not suitable for listening to fast-paced music.
If the music rhythm is too fast, it will form a kind of noise, which will strongly affect people's senses, cause mental stress, vasoconstriction and microvascular circulation disorder, thus causing a sudden increase in blood pressure, which may lead to a sudden attack of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Hypertensive patients can listen to some soothing and beautiful music at ordinary times, which can effectively regulate blood pressure, but if patients always listen to some fast-paced music, it will affect their smooth recovery.
Squatting up is a no-no.
In daily life, proper exercise for patients with hypertension is beneficial to the treatment of hypertension and can promote the rehabilitation of patients, but some exercises are not suitable. Patients with hypertension should not squat and stand, shake their heads or jump quickly except for high-intensity strenuous exercise, which may cause cerebrovascular accidents. Walking, gymnastics, Tai Ji Chuan and other low-intensity exercises are suitable for patients with hypertension, and the exercise time should not be too long. Patients with hypertension should adjust the amount of exercise appropriately according to their own specific conditions.
Don't fasten the collar too tightly.
In daily life, patients with hypertension should pay attention to the influence of clothing on blood pressure, and loose clothing can help patients effectively lower their blood pressure. High neck fastening, due to the long-term compression of jugular vein, causes insufficient blood supply to cerebral vessels, causes ischemia and hypoxia of brain cells, and is easy to cause accidents in patients with cerebral arteriosclerosis. Therefore, patients with hypertension should try to wear less high-necked clothes, tighten the collar and keep the neck loose, which is beneficial to the blood circulation of the brain.
Reading on your stomach will make your blood pressure soar.
Patients with hypertension should pay attention to effectively control their blood pressure through some details in their lives. Reading on your stomach for a long time is a bad habit that hypertensive patients should correct. Because long-term prone compression of abdominal muscles affects people's deep breathing, coupled with abdominal compression and contraction of abdominal muscles, it is easy to cause a sharp rise in blood pressure and accidents. Therefore, patients with hypertension, especially older patients, should be forbidden to read books and watch TV on their stomach for a long time.

Patients with hypertension can lower their blood pressure through exercise.
How to lower blood pressure? What is the best way to lower blood pressure? Hypertension refers to the increase of arterial systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure at rest. = 140/90mmHg***, often accompanied by disorder of lipid and sugar metabolism and functional or organic changes of heart, brain, kidney, retina and other organs, is a systemic disease characterized by organ remodeling. Hypertension can be diagnosed by resting for more than 5 minutes or measuring blood pressure on different days > = 140/90mmHg. Regarding the treatment of hypertension, exercise is a good method.
Experts have learned that many people have the feeling and experience that their blood pressure is falling after moderate exercise. Why do you have such feelings and experiences? Under normal circumstances, human blood vessels are open in the form of reincarnation. Regular fitness walking can promote the uniform opening of blood vessels in the whole body through the alternating movement of muscle groups in both legs, and the arterial blood pressure is relatively reduced at this time.
In fact, it does not mean that patients with hypertension can lower their blood pressure as long as they move. In fact, exercise is only suitable for patients with borderline hypertension, stage I and II hypertension and partially stable stage III hypertension. Patients with unstable stage III hypertension with large blood pressure fluctuation, or patients with serious complications such as severe arrhythmia, tachycardia, heart failure, cerebral vasospasm, unstable angina pectoris, renal failure, etc. , and the adverse reactions of antihypertensive drugs can not be controlled and the blood pressure rises too fast during exercise * * * Blood pressure is greater than 220/ 1 108.
For hypertension, people often use drugs to treat it, and these drugs will have great side effects in most cases. In fact, it is also the best way to treat hypertension to insist on regular fitness walking.
During exercise, the amount of nutrients and oxygen consumed by body muscles, especially leg muscles, increases, and the inner diameter of arterioles expands, which can increase blood flow and supplement the required oxygen and nutrients. This function is an instinct, called the automatic regulation function of blood vessels. Under this effect, blood can be smoothly transported to all parts of the body, thus reducing high blood pressure.
Patients with hypertension should pay attention to some methods when taking a walk:
1. When walking, keep your feet on the ground, hold your chest out, and walk at a moderate pace.
2. Keep your upper body straight when walking, otherwise it will oppress your chest and affect your heart function.
We should also abide by the principle of gradual progress. When you walk, your blood pressure will rise slightly, so you must walk slowly at first, and its speed is about 40% ~ 50% of your whole walk. It is more appropriate to walk 2 ~ 3 kilometers in 30 ~ 45 minutes. The intensity of walking is based on the fact that sweat seems to flow out.
