Hypertension

Short characteristic of a disease

For a start it is necessary to clear up the used terms. Many people put an equal-sign between the concepts "hypertension" and "idiopathic hypertensia". It is not absolutely correct, and now we will explain why. As a matter of fact, the hypertension is an excess tension of unstriated muscles. In a case with arterioles it can really become the reason of the increased arterial pressure, but only the reason. The increased arterial pressure is designated by the term hypertensia or a hypertension. At the same time at the patient it is observed stable raised by the ABP. It is rather important point, pressure can rise easily and at absolutely healthy person under the influence of external factors (a stress, strong exercise and emotional stresses). In this case increase in the ABP is defense reaction of an organism on irritants, however, if it does not return to normal long time, then the speech already goes not about normal, natural process, and about a serious disease.

Hypertension – symptoms of the increased arterial pressure

Despite development of technologies and emergence of new techniques of diagnosis, timely recognition of hypertensia is still an important medical problem. It is connected with the fact that at initial stages supertension practically does not prove in any way and easily masks under a temporary indisposition. Precisely to define – you have an arterial hypertension or is not present – it is necessary to know about disease forms as how will prove raised by the ABP depends on them.

• tranzitorny hypertension – symptoms are expressed as a periodic raising of pressure at several o'clock or days then the condition of the person is normalized before a new attack;
• labile hypertensia – pressure raises also attacks, but it is possible to return it to norm only by means of medicines. Besides, patients complain of bystry fatigue, dizziness, unpleasant feelings in a thorax and frequent headaches;
• the stable hypertension – treatment is successful only when using strong drugs. During attacks the patient has all symptoms of heart failure, and increase in the ABP can be caused by the most insignificant exercise stresses;
• malignant idiopathic hypertensia – at patients are observed: constant, very high pressure, an asthma, hypostases standing, vision disorders, pains in heart and increase in amount of the emitted urine. During crises the patient feels extremely badly, suffering also from severe pains and bystry fatigue at any loadings.

If you noticed at yourself the above described symptoms, then, most likely, you develop a hypertension. Treatment by folk remedies can facilitate a condition of the person for short term and reduce intensity of pains, however at the first opportunity all of you equally have to address the cardiologist for statement of the correct diagnosis.

Hypertension degrees

Every year in the known cardiological clinics of the world the symposiums concerning arterial hypertension are carried out. Specialists impart experience treatments of patients, estimate perspectives of new techniques and medicines, approve standards of service of people.

On the basis of materials of the carried-out symposiums, we can allocate the following degrees of a hypertension:

The I degree – an easy form of a disease. Arterial pressure is in limits 140-159/90 – 99 mm of mercury.;

The II degree – a moderate hypertension – symptoms are expressed stronger, than at a weak form. Pressure increased – 160-179/100-109 mm. рт. St;

The III degree – a heavy hypertension – folk remedies and medical drugs do not render essential positive effect. Pressure is higher than 180/110 mm of mercury. In certain cases surgical intervention is shown to patients.

At assessment of danger of a disease are taken into account and risk factors, that is chances of development of cardiovascular complications which hypertensia can cause. Depending on it, doctors adjust the chosen technique of treatment and give the forecast of effects.

Hypertension – treatment by traditional means

All techniques of treatment of a hypertension applied now can be divided conditionally into two big groups – medicinal and not medicinal. To the first as it is clear from the name, the methods meaning reception of these or those medicines belong. We will not stop in detail on this question as (and them quite a lot) only the doctor has to register all hypertension medicine. Let's better talk about how it is possible to cope with a disease by means of not medicinal treatment. It costs on three "whales":

• the healthy nutrition and decrease in body weight is one of the most effective preventive measures. As well as in a case with other pathologies of cardiovascular system, hypertensia often is a consequence of excess weight. It is known that each kilogram of body weight increases the ABP by 5-10 mm Hg. Therefore observance of a diet, refusal of greasy food, introduction to a diet of a large number of vegetables and fruit becomes the main task of the patient;
• the healthy lifestyle – full refusal of alcoholic drinks and smoking is a way to long and healthy life. All the matter is that the hypertension which symptoms are even more often shown in the environment of youth actively develops at the people abusing alcohol and tobacco. Respectively, the earlier you refuse addictions, the quicker you will bring the organism into a form and you will be able to lead normal, full-fledged life;
• daily sports activities – regular loadings reduce risk of development of numerous diseases of cardiovascular system to a minimum and accelerate healing process. If the diagnosis a hypertension is made to the person, treatment consists in definition of optimum exercise stresses. As a rule, frequent foot walks in the fresh air lasting not less than 1 hour are recommended to hypertensive persons.

As for national recipes. At the diagnosis the hypertension, treatment by folk remedies will result in the expected results only if you listen to recommendations of the attending physician. Amateur performance is completely excluded as supertension is a frequent reason of serious complications and it is necessary to fight against it, in view of a set of essential nuances, including features of an organism of this or that person.
