edit by picsart

Assalamualaikum
hello all stemian friends, I hope and pray that we are all healthy and fine and always in the blessings and grace of Allah SWT. Here I am participating in an interesting contest and of course very useful for all of us, a contest organized by @suboohi about our awareness of hypertension.

Do you know what hypertension is?

In my opinion, hypertension is high blood pressure or a disease caused by blood pressure on the artery walls that is too high. We all have to be careful with hypertension because it not only causes complications, but can also have fatal consequences because in most cases the severity of hypertension will endanger our lives.

I really know about hypertension because my family has a history of hypertension, my aunt, uncle and grandfather have had hypertension for the rest of their lives, a few weeks ago the doctor said that my aunt had had a stroke due to severe hypertension.

Do you know the symptoms of hypertension?

Of course, I know what symptoms of hypertension will occur in someone who suffers from it because I am close to the hypertension sufferer. Usually the first symptoms that appear are headache, vision problems, chest pain, ringing in the ears, shortness of breath, nausea and vomiting, fatigue, confusion and anxiety and the severity is usually accompanied by nosebleeds and blood in the urine.

Although sometimes high blood pressure often does not show any symptoms, blood pressure can rise, therefore we must be alert and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Can hypertension cause other health problems?

Hypertension that is not treated and left alone without treatment from a doctor and our own awareness to prevent it will have an impact on our health and cause other health problems such as heart disease, stroke, kidney problems, damage to the retina and nervous disorders.

The higher the blood pressure, the higher the risk of heart disease and stroke and blood vessels in large organs, such as the brain and kidneys. This health problem caused by hypertension can cause death.

Do you think lifestyle changes can treat hypertension effectively?

Maybe adopting a healthy lifestyle will increase our chances of recovery based on how confident we are and how hard we try to be healthy.
Among the healthy lifestyle patterns that we must live to overcome hypertension are:

• maintain an ideal and healthy weight because obesity is easy to attack.
• consume healthy foods such as vegetables and fruit that are healthy and nutritionally balanced and low in salt.
• manage stress well, for example doing activities you like such as hobbies, for example reading, cooking and embroidery.
• take medication regularly given by your doctor.
• do physical exercise, such as swimming, cycling, yoga and walking so that your body is healthy, moving and not stiff.
• avoid coffee, smoking and alcoholic drinks as much as possible, limit their use.
• always monitor and regularly check your blood pressure at home and have regular check-ups with your doctor.
