Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable with my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Could you please tell me what are the causes of high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Hypertension is divided into primary hypertension and secondary hypertension. The hypertension we usually refer to is generally primary hypertension. The causes of primary hypertension include the following several factors. First is the generational genetic factor, which means hypertension has a significant family hereditary tendency. Then there are dietary reasons, psychological factors, obesity, and sleep apnea syndrome, among others. These are the more common causes that lead to primary hypertension.
