Normal Blood Pressure Range In Adults
A person's normal blood pressure can go up or down, depending on the physical activity undertaken and the emotional condition experienced. So, you don't have to worry when your blood pressure is different from others, as long as this number is inconsistent or low for a long time.
Health problems related to blood pressure
If your blood pressure has been high or low for a long time, this is worth watching as it can be a symptom of a blood pressure disorder. The following are the types of health problems associated with blood pressure:
Hypertension
Hypertension is a condition when the blood pressure is at 130/80 mmHg or more. This condition sometimes shows no symptoms, so hypertensive patients do not know that their blood pressure is above normal.
If not treated immediately, hypertension can lead to complications, such as heart disease, heart attack, stroke. In addition, this condition can also cause visual disturbances and even kidney failure.
There are several factors that can increase the risk of hypertension, including:
• Over 55 years
• Obesity
• smoker
• Consumption of alcoholic or excessive drinks
• rarely exercise
• Excessive salt consumption
• family history of hypertension, diabetes, or heart disease
Hypotension
Hypotension is a condition when the blood pressure is below 90/60 mmHg. Low blood pressure is generally relatively mild and does not cause harm to sufferers.
However, long-standing hypotension can increase the risk of complications, such as problems with the heart and brain.
In addition, low blood pressure also needs to be watched out for if the sufferer shows symptoms, such as nausea, dizziness, fatigue, dehydration, fast or shallow breathing, to fainting.
There are several factors that can increase a person's risk of developing hypotension, including:
• Pregnancy
• Anemia
• Addison's disease.
• Excessive Consumption of Alcoholic Drinks
Drug effects, such as antidepressants, alpha or beta inhibitors, levodopa (a drug for Parkinson's), and sildenafil
• Heart Disorders
How to measure blood pressure
Measuring blood pressure is the only way to know whether blood pressure is normal or not. You can measure blood pressure independently at home using a tensimeter or ask the help of nurses or doctors in clinics and hospitals.
You should not smoke, avoid drinks containing caffeine, and do not take it at least 30 minutes before measuring blood pressure so that the results are accurate.
