Hypotension, not to be confused with hypertension, is low blood pressure. What is blood pressure, anyway? Blood pressure is a term for the force of the blood, and how much force and pressure the blood has against the artery walls. For some people who stay in peak physical condition, low blood pressure is a sign of good health. However, extremely low blood pressure can lead to fainting and dizziness. If you ever feel lightheaded or dizzy, you might have low blood pressure.<\/p>\n
Low blood pressure can be caused by a lot of things, including too little blood, changes in hormone levels, heart problems, and endocrine problems. Low blood volume is the most common cause of low blood pressure. Low blood pressure is sometimes a side effect of herbal supplements. The treatment of low blood pressure is really dependent on what is causing it. There are different treatments, depending on the root cause. Most people who have it without any symptoms don\u2019t need treatment. Simply adding electrolytes to your diet or downing a cup of coffee in the morning can help. Low blood pressure is not as serious as high blood pressure. Let\u2019s take a look at seven little-known low blood pressure signs.<\/p>\n
It can be hard to distinguish the confusion associated with dementia<\/a> and other age-related problems with the confusion of low blood pressure. However, low blood pressure confusion might be more sudden and out of tune with how the elderly person normally functions. If an older person suddenly starts feeling confused and has any of the other symptoms listed here, it would be a wise move to take him or her to a medical care clinic or nearby doctor to confirm that he or she isn\u2019t suffering from life-threatening low blood pressure.<\/p>\n If you have cold, clammy skin and then take on a pale appearance, you might be suffering from low blood pressure<\/a>.<\/p>\n It is not uncommon for people with panic attacks or heart problems to get cold, clammy skin and a pale look right before an episode. It can also happen if you\u2019ve eaten just sugar for a few days or haven\u2019t slept in awhile.<\/p>\n It can happen if you get frightfully nervous, like if you have a reaction every time you see blood. It can be hard to distinguish fear and more serious heart problems with the cold, clammy skin and pale appearance of low blood pressure.<\/p>\n That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to visit a doctor regularly and be in touch with a cardiovascular specialist as you get older.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re having difficulty breathing, or feel that your breathing is really shallow, you may be suffering from low blood pressure. Breathing problems are always something to look into, and they can signal very serious heart problems.<\/p>\n If you ever have interruptions in your breathing or feel like you can\u2019t catch your breath, it\u2019s wise to visit a doctor just to make sure nothing\u2019s wrong with you. Any breathing difficulty could be a sign of an underlying difficulty in your heart<\/a> health.<\/p>\n It\u2019s also just not fun to not be able to catch your breath. It can feel quite nerve-wracking and panic-inducing.<\/p>\n If your pulse has some irregularity, like it is moving too fast without exercising or is so weak that you can hardly feel it, then you should visit a doctor to make sure you don\u2019t have a more serious heart problem. Of course, it could just be low blood pressure.<\/p>\n It\u2019s always a good idea to get checked out regularly by a cardiovascular<\/a> specialist for your heart health as you get older. If you\u2019re having pulse problems, then you shouldn\u2019t have any excuses about visiting the cardiovascular specialist right away.<\/p>\n It\u2019s important you have a good, firm handle on what is going on with your cardiovascular health.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re having blurred vision, it can be quite scary. You might not know what is going on or even be able to see. You may be wondering what is going to happen next, or if you\u2019re going to faint. Blurred vision, nausea<\/a>, lack of concentration, and fainting can sometimes go together in cases of low blood pressure.<\/p>\n You may feel all of them at once and just feel overwhelmed and want to faint. If you\u2019re struggling with blurred vision or unable to stand up straight or start feeling suddenly nauseous, you may be suffering from low blood pressure.<\/p>\n It\u2019s important to visit a doctor so you can rule out other causes.<\/p>\n2.
