Does staying up late cause high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

My work pressure is especially high, and I work late every night. Will long-term overtime lead to high blood pressure?

Doctor's answer:

It's just that excessive pressure and overwork can easily lead to hypotension, and even neurasthenia. Insufficient rest time can also cause hypotension. It's also necessary to pay attention to a balance between work and rest, exercise appropriately to increase physical activity, and pay attention to the quality of deep sleep. When blood pressure is high, it's necessary to strictly follow medical advice and use antihypertensive medication if necessary. It's also important to pay attention to a low-salt, low-fat diet and regularly measure blood pressure.
