Yesterday we talked about the most common type of hypertension: primary hypertension. Today we see the causes and risk factors in the development of secondary hypertension.
This type of hypertension suffer 20% of hypertensives and the most important cause of disease or appearance is a health situation that favors development.
Among the risk factors for secondary hypertension are:
- Toxemia in pregnancy, ie the emergence of high pressure in pregnant women with no medical history of hypertension in your family.
- Stress is another factor that can lead to secondary hypertension, as well as workaholism and hyperactivity.
- Self-medication with steroids or oral contraceptives without medical supervision.
- Renal disease and hypothyroidism.
In all these factors we see a common factor as in primary hypertension: a person suffering from diseases that are not treated with a balanced diet and regular physical activity is exposed not only to develop the disease, but they suffer high blood pressure increases the risk of stroke.
Also any type of hypertension involves not only medication and diet restricted in sodium, but a positive attitude by the patient to this condition which is directly related to the nervous condition of the person.
