Hypertension or high blood pressure is often not detected early on and became known only when it is exposed to other diseases. For that to know the early symptoms of what appears if you have hypertension.
Based on data from 2007 known Riskesdas approximately 35.7 percent of Indonesia has the problem of hypertension. Hypertension, and in 2011 it became the third leading cause of death in Indonesia after the stroke, and tuberculosis.
"Hypertension can affect all, whether male or female can all be taxable, and high blood pressure, this effect could be from head to ankle," said Dr. Rudi Putranto, SpPD in the seminar 'Do not let your life because of glaucoma dark' in the Hospital Eye AINI, Jakarta, as written on Monday (07/05/2012).
Dr. Rudi said that hypertension is a medical condition where there is an increase in blood pressure is chronically or it could be sudden. About 90 percent of hypertension has no known cause and 10 percent due to other conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, kidney or the environment.
In general, people with hypertension seen sejat and most do not cause symptoms. But there are early symptoms that may result from hypertension, namely:A. Headache2. Bleeding from the nose3. Dizziness4. Facial redness5. Fatigue
As for the signs and symptoms of severe or chronic hypertension usually include headache, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, anxiety, blurred vision if there is damage to the brain, eyes, heart and kidneys, and decreased consciousness and coma due to brain swelling.
Here are the negative effects of Hypertension:A. Effects on blood vessels
Sustained high pressure on blood vessels makes the artery walls become damaged. As a result, the artery wall will heal so much thicker, harder and less elastic. This condition is called atherosclerosis or hardening of the arteries. You can have atherosclerosis naturally by the aging process, but high blood pressure can accelerate the process. Hardened and stiff arteries are more prone to rupture and congestion, which causes damage to the organs that should be supplied by blood vessels.
High blood pressure also can cause aneurysms. Artery aneurysm occurs when a portion becomes weak and swell up like a balloon because of the extra pressure constantly. Aneurysms develop slowly over many years and often causes no symptoms. If this bubble burst, dangerous bleeding can occur in the body. Aneurysms can occur anywhere, but most commonly in the aorta that supplies blood to the abdomen, pelvis, and legs (abdominal aortic aneurysm).2. Effects on the heart
If your blood vessels narrow and harden, your heart has to pump harder to draw blood. The heart is a muscle mass, muscle mass and other such hard work that makes your heart swell. The left ventricle can be thickened or hardened (left ventricular hypertrophy). It is not good. Your heart will expand and the amount of blood pumped into your body should remain in the heart. Finally, your heart begins to weaken because they can not constantly working hard to pump blood. When the heart can not pump blood properly to the arteries, you have what is known as heart failure or heart trouble.
If the heart arteries (coronary arteries) is blocked so it does not allow blood to flow freely into your heart, you have what is referred to as coronary heart disease. Hypertension increases the risk of coronary heart disease because blood pressure is persistently high burden the arterial wall. Over time, this extra pressure can damage arteries. Arteries that are injured are more likely to narrow and harden by fatty deposits (plaque).3. Effects on the brain
High blood pressure can cause blood vessels in the brain bursts or is blocked. Brain tissue to be deprived of nutrients and oxygen. This condition is known as a stroke, which can cause serious problems and even death. High blood pressure is a major cause of stroke.
In addition to stroke, hypertension can also cause dementia, brain diseases that cause problems thinking, speaking, reasoning, vision, memory, and movement. There are several causes of dementia. One reason, vascular dementia, is the result of the narrowing and blockage of the arteries that supply blood to the brain.4. Effects on the kidneys
Kidneys are important organs that may be damaged by high blood pressure. If the arteries that supply blood to the kidney damage, kidney tissue did not get the required blood and will gradually lose the ability to function. This condition is called chronic kidney disease and kidney failure. This condition is very dangerous because of kidney damage can increase blood pressure even higher.5. Effect on the eye
Small blood vessels supplying blood to the eye. Hypertension can damage the tiny blood vessels that supply blood to the eye is reduced or stopped. Hypertensive retinopathy occurs when the retina is damaged due to high blood pressure. The retina is a layer of tissue at the back of the eye that converts light entering the eye into nerve signals that are sent to the brain. The longer high blood pressure, the more severe the damage that may occur in the retina. Nerve in the eye may also be able to die from lack of blood supply. This condition is called ischemic optic neuropathy. All these conditions can cause blurred vision or total blindness.
