What disease can hypertension cause

summary

We have all seen high blood pressure, which is a very serious disease. If you get high blood pressure, you need to strengthen the daily care. In the process of treatment, only a better understanding of the disease can keep the blood pressure of patients stable. Now, I'd like to talk about what diseases high blood pressure can cause.

What disease can hypertension cause

First: the impact on the heart: due to the rise of blood pressure, the resistance of the left ventricle rises, and it is in a state of overload for a long time. The left ventricle is gradually hypertrophic and dilated due to compensation. The oxygen consumption of the myocardium increases, and the weight of the myocardium increases, but there is no corresponding increase in blood supply. At the same time, hypertension damages the coronary artery, and gradually makes the coronary artery atherosclerosis. At this time, the coronary artery stenosis makes the blood supply increase Blood loss should be reduced.

Second: the impact on the brain: in the long-term effect of hypertension, the cerebral arterioles will be seriously damaged, cerebral arteriosclerosis, arteriolar wall lesions, wall thickening, lumen stenosis, easy to form cerebral thrombosis. Microvascular occlusion, the formation of lacunar infarction, a CT often lacunar infarction, can lead to brain atrophy, the development of Alzheimer's disease. Because the cerebral vascular structure is relatively weak, it is more fragile when sclerosis occurs, and it is easy to spasm when blood pressure fluctuates, and then rupture, leading to cerebral hemorrhage.

Third: the impact on the kidney: the above is the impact on the heart and brain. Now let's talk about the kidney. If the hypertension patients don't control the blood pressure, the disease continues to progress, 5-10 years or even shorter time, can appear mild to moderate renal arteriosclerosis. The arteriosclerosis of renal arterioles mainly occurs in the afferent arterioles, and less in the efferent arterioles without diabetes mellitus (special interview consultation).

matters needing attention

When patients with hypertension, the first thing is to make sure that they are primary or secondary, and then take targeted treatment.
