As age gradually increases, the body is more or less prone to chronic diseases, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, etc. However, when the body suffers from these chronic diseases, it also continuously damages the health of the blood vessels, and may even shorten one’s lifespan.
In recent years, the number of people with hypertension in China has exceeded one hundred million, and the incidence has risen to 25.2%. Hypertension is very troubling.
When the blood pressure remains high, it slowly damages the blood vessels, especially those in the brain. Therefore, in daily life, it is essential to pay attention to high blood pressure, stabilize it in time, reduce damage to the blood vessels, and protect one’s health.
If your body feels “numb, sore, red,” it may be indicating that your blood pressure has exceeded the standard
Redness
Bodily redness mainly manifests in two areas, the nose and nails. If hypertensive patients experience symptoms of nosebleeds, it is likely to increase the risk of vascular bleeding and unknowingly increase vascular damage.
Before cerebral hemorrhage, the nails may also have numerous red spots due to capillary rupture and bleeding. It is advisable to promptly undergo vascular monitoring at a hospital.
Therefore, when you notice signs of redness in your nose and nails, or even have a significant amount of blood vessels, please go to the hospital for blood pressure monitoring promptly as it is likely that your blood pressure has exceeded the standard.
Numbness
As the condition of hypertension worsens, the loss of water in the blood leads to high viscosity, directly causing abnormalities in related circulatory functions.
Especially when there is numbness in your hands and feet, it indicates that blood circulation in the body is unable to reach the body’s extremities. This suggests that there may be issues with your blood vessels, damaging your brain and possibly causing stiffness or numbness in the limbs.
Therefore, when you frequently feel numbness in your hands and feet over a period, pay more attention to blood pressure monitoring. It may be a warning signal that your blood pressure has exceeded the standard.
Pain
Some people often inexplicably experience headaches, which may be a precursor to cerebral hemorrhage. We feel pain only when there is a blockage in the blood vessels. It is also a signal that your body is sending to you.
Therefore, when you frequently experience headaches over a period, pay attention as it may be a signal from your brain, indicating that your blood pressure has indeed exceeded the standard. It is advisable to promptly undergo vascular checks at a hospital.
The “blessing” of hypertension, eat a little, dilate blood vessels, and stabilize blood pressure
Celery: Celery is a common vegetable in daily life with high nutritional value, rich in vitamins and various trace elements. Consuming some celery can help dilate blood vessel smooth muscles, reduce peripheral arterial resistance, and protect vascular health.
Moreover, celery is also known as a “blessing” for hypertension. Therefore, consuming celery regularly can help dilate blood vessels, reduce the pressure on the blood vessels, and steadily lower your blood pressure.
Kelp: For people with hypertension, consuming some kelp can also help dilate blood vessels as it contains abundant nutrients such as vitamins and calcium, which reduce cholesterol absorption and lower blood pressure.
So when suffering from hypertension, consider consuming some kelp to help eliminate toxins and waste, reduce the burden on blood vessels, and gradually lower blood pressure.
Bitter Buckwheat Tea: Although bitter buckwheat tea has a slight bitterness, its health benefits to the body are significant. Drinking bitter buckwheat tea regularly can help cleanse toxins and waste inside blood vessels, protecting vascular health.
Furthermore, regular consumption of bitter buckwheat tea can help restore vascular elasticity, control blood pressure, and is also known as a natural antihypertensive agent. Drinking it regularly can steadily lower your blood pressure.
