summary

In our life, we all have some habitual minor diseases, such as stomachache, rhinitis, and hypotension. Sometimes people are used to their own minor diseases, so they don't care too much. I think these are my own diseases all the time. Anyway, there's no big problem. That's it. What harm does long-term hypotension have? Next, I'd like to share my views with you.

What harm does long-term hypotension have?

First, long-term hypotension can greatly reduce the body function, mainly including: vision, hearing loss, coupled with memory will also decline, hypotension induced or aggravated the probability of Alzheimer's disease increased. Dizziness, fainting and falling greatly increase the incidence of fracture. In addition, it will lead to fatigue, mental fatigue, and inattention to work and study. And low blood pressure will make depression, depression and other situations often occur, induce depression.

Second: the harm of hypotension in the elderly. Hypotension in the elderly refers to systolic blood pressure below 90 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure below 60 mmHg. There are relatively few studies on hypotension in the elderly in China. But in fact, it has the same important clinical significance as hypertension. Long term symptomatic hypotension will seriously affect the life of the elderly. Next, we will understand the harm of hypotension to the elderly.

Third: for the elderly, hypotension may be temporary, or it may be long-term, it can cause the lack of blood supply to the organs of the elderly. As the brain is very sensitive to ischemia and hypoxia, hypotension can cause severe ischemic damage to brain tissue, and even lead to progressive decline of various important organ functions. It can make people often feel dizzy, headache, blackness, forgetfulness, mental retardation, and prone to ischemic stroke, angina pectoris and myocardial infarction. Low blood pressure can also lead to Alzheimer's disease in the elderly.

matters needing attention
