Precautions for winter exercise in patients with hypertension

Precautions for winter exercise in patients with hypertension. Many old friends have sports hobbies, but for patients with hypertension, experts suggest that they take it easy! Experts say that exercise can promote blood circulation and human energy metabolism, enhance the function of the heart and lungs, and help to prevent and treat hypertension. However, the heart, brain and kidney of patients with hypertension have been damaged to varying degrees. Therefore, we must pay more attention to exercise to prevent malignant transformation accidents. Specifically, it mainly includes the following four points:

1. Don't exercise too much: make exercise plans according to your own characteristics, and take an orderly and gradual way to increase the amount of activities. 2. Pay attention to the environment and climate: the elderly are relatively poor in physique and are vulnerable to climate conditions. It is cold in winter, so you should keep warm to prevent stroke caused by blood pressure fluctuation.

3. Sportswear should be comfortable and absorb sweat: it is best to choose cotton cloth, and wear appropriate sports shoes to prevent sports injury.

Warm tip: don't take a lot of drugs to reduce blood pressure suddenly

The blood flow of human brain tissue is mainly maintained by blood pressure. Most hypertension is caused by arteriosclerosis, and the blood supply of its main organs is insufficient more or less. Many patients are eager for success because their blood pressure is too high. They take large doses of antihypertensive drugs, or take high-efficiency antihypertensive drugs that are not suitable for their condition without following the doctor's advice. However, sudden hypotension slows down the blood flow, resulting in serious shortage of blood supply to the brain. The viscosity of their blood increases rapidly, platelets and fibrin deposit and form thrombosis, blocking cerebral vessels and stroke.
