高血压 can be prevented by making healthy choices and managing other health conditions that persistently promote pressure in blood vessels. If you have been diagnosed with 高血压, you can work with our Consultants who have the expertise to treat hypertension and help you effectively control the condition.

Blood pressure is determined by the amount of blood pumped by the heart against the amount of blood flows through the blood vessels (arteries). 高血压 (also called high blood pressure) develops when blood experiences interruption in its flow through the arteries. If blood pressure gets too high or persists, it can lead to various health complications including 中风, 心脏病, 和肾功能衰竭. 高血压 is classified into two types:

• 原发性高血压 develops over many years and can affect every individual eventually. There might not be a certain cause for this particular type of high blood pressure, but it is generally believed that lifestyle, 环境, and aging can put individuals at a higher risk for developing it.
• 继发性高血压 is caused by medicines or drugs and an underlying health problem such as kidney disorders, 睡眠呼吸暂停, 还有甲状腺和肾上腺的问题.

高血压的原因:

There are several factors involved to affect blood pressure; some of them are:

• Health issues such as diabetes, kidney disorders, cardiac issues
• The amount of water and salt present in a body
• 激素水平
• Certain medicines such as birth control pills, 减肥药, 糖皮质激素, 抗精神病药物, and for the treatment of migraines and cancer
• 阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停
• 怀孕或先兆子痫

高血压的症状:

Most people who have high blood pressure do not show symptoms until they visit a healthcare provider or have their blood pressure checked. The best way to know if blood pressure is high is through regular check-ups that can be performed at home or clinic. When blood pressure reaches a dangerously high level, there are certain symptoms to look out for:

• 严重的头痛
• 恶心和呕吐
• 流鼻血
• 呼吸急促（气促）
• 疲劳和混乱
• 视力改变或眼睛有血点
• 出汗和脸红
• 胸痛或心律不齐

If you have been bothered by any of these listed symptoms, we encourage you to see a trusted health-care practitioner for proper diagnosis and treatment, as it will help control the condition as well as prevent a risk of other possible health problems. Because hypertension often goes unnoticed, it is possible that people might develop other health conditions such as heart disease, 中风, 眼睛的问题, and chronic kidney diseases without knowing they have high blood pressure.
