Patient's question:
Doctor, I am just 46 years old this year. Recently, I had a health check-up at the hospital and found that my blood pressure is much higher than the normal value. I don't know what caused it. My friend said it might be caused by anemia. Hello, can anemia cause high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Hypertension is a disease that poses a significant threat to human health. Anemia does not cause hypertension. Hypertension is generally divided into primary hypertension and secondary hypertension. Primary hypertension does not have a clear cause, while secondary hypertension is caused by certain diseases and has a clear etiology. Primary hypertension is considered to be related to factors such as irregular lifestyle, irregular diet, excessive obesity, smoking, drinking beer, and generational inheritance.
