Causes and consequences of high blood pressure

Causes of high blood pressure are, among other things, obesity, a high cholesterol level, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, emotions, excessive salt consumption, a lack of exercise, hereditary inclination towards high blood pressure and certain diseases such as kidney and metabolic disorders.

In the long term, high blood pressure can lead to reduced elasticity of the walls of arteries (arteriosclerosis), which is one of the major causes of cardiac infarcts, cerebral haemorrhages and cerebral infarcts as well as kidney disorders.

Blood pressure fluctuation

The blood pressure of healthy people, but especially that of people with high blood pressure, fluctuates greatly. Blood pressure fluctuates in the course of the day and in the course of the month. The season and the temperature also have an impact on blood pressure. Generally, a person's blood pressure is lower when the weather is hot and higher when it is cold.

To give an example of the fluctuations in blood pressure that occur during the day, a graph showing the blood pressure of a 35-year-old man has been included.
