Hypotonic disease - low blood pressure, this is the state of the body, characterized by a decrease in the tone of the arteries.

Causes, course, diagnosis

This disease is characterized by a decrease in systolic pressure below 100 mm Hg. And diastolic - below 60 mm Hg. Art. The figures of the upper and lower limits of blood pressure for people who have passed the thirty-year boundary are 105/65 mm Hg. Art.

The causes of the appearance of hypotonic disease are very different. You can identify the physiological arterial hypotension that occurs in healthy people, and pathological, which is a disease.

Physiological hypotension often has a hereditary character and depends on the constitution of a person. It is observed in healthy people doing normal work. Periodically, the occurrence of hypotension occurs in athletes. It can also develop when people move to high altitude conditions or places with subtropical and tropical climates. This is due to a decrease in atmospheric pressure in these areas, with air temperature (very low or high), with excessive solar activity. Manifestations of hypotonic disease in these cases are temporary and disappear after adaptation to these factors.

Pathological arterial hypotension can be primary and secondary, acute and chronic. It can also be called vegetative vascular dystonia in the hypotonic type. This is the primary arterial hypotension. It develops as a result of a violation of the regulation of the vascular tone of the central nervous system. The rate of blood flow through the vessels remains normal, the heart begins to increase the blood outflow, but it is not enough and normalization of blood pressure does not occur. Hormones play a big role in the development of this disease. Kidneys and adrenal glands produce several hormones involved in the regulation of blood pressure. In addition, the amount of sodium and potassium in the blood can be changed in patients (the amount of sodium is decreased and the content of potassium is increased). Important reasons leading to this disease include stress, psychological trauma, neurotic conditions, production hazards, and alcohol abuse. According to one of the modern theories hypotonic disease is a neurosis of the vasomotor centers of the brain.

Secondary arterial hypotension occurs with various diseases. Among them are thyroid diseases, gastric ulcer, anemia, inflammation of liver cells, tumors, as well as the effect on the body of certain medicines.

Symptoms of hypotension

They are numerous and diverse. Most often, patients complain of weakness (especially in the morning), lethargy, fast-onset fatigue with habitual activities, headaches, a feeling of lack of air, insomnia, pain in the heart, heaviness in the stomach, loss of appetite. In addition, often at the same time there are violations of the stool (often constipation), menstrual irregularities in women and decreased potency in men.

Let us dwell in more detail on pain in the heart and headaches. By the predominance of this or that sensation, the cardiac and cerebral variant of hypotonic disease is distinguished.

Pain in the region of the heart is usually dull, aching, does not extend to the left arm and shoulder blade, in contrast to the attack of pain in coronary heart disease. It does not go away with taking nitroglycerin, which can even worsen the condition. Pain can appear at rest, after a morning sleep, sometimes it appears with too much physical activity. A painful attack can last several hours and even days or occur repeatedly throughout the day. A few easy physical exercises usually reduce pain and normalize well-being.

Patients can complain only of frequent headaches (with a cerebral variant), which appear after work, sleep, when weather changes, after excessive intake of food. The pain concentrates more often in the forehead and temples and may last for a long time. Sometimes dizziness, nausea and vomiting are added. At attacks, patients experience increased sensitivity to loud sounds, bright light, the condition worsens when in a stuffy room and a long vertical position of the body. Staying outdoors and gymnastics usually reduce pain symptoms. Often the main complaints are temporary pain in different joints and muscles.

In some cases, when the patient suddenly rises from the bed, systolic pressure may drop to 50 mm Hg. P. There is a loss of consciousness. When moving to a horizontal position, the person's state is normalized.

Outwardly, in patients with hypotonic disease, paleness and sweating of the feet are noted. When listening and determining the pulse, a fickle pulse and a fast heartbeat are detected. Body temperature in the morning below 36 ° C, blood pressure is always reduced.

Deterioration of health usually occurs in the spring and summer, after the transfer of colds and infectious diseases.
