Dr. Wang Xin
The causes of high diastolic blood pressure (low pressure high) are diverse and mainly include the following:
1. Lifestyle factors: Obesity, overweight, high-salt diet, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, high mental stress, anxiety, insomnia, and other factors may contribute to elevated diastolic blood pressure.
2. Genetic factors: Family history is also an important cause of high diastolic blood pressure. If a patient's parents have hypertension, the patient's risk of developing hypertension increases.
3. Medical conditions: Certain diseases, such as pheochromocytoma, primary aldosteronism, renal artery stenosis, cerebrovascular disease, diabetes, etc., can also lead to elevated diastolic blood pressure.
4. Medication factors: Taking certain medications, such as glycyrrhiza tablets (licorice), contraceptive pills, and certain hormones, may also cause an increase in diastolic blood pressure.
If you have any concerns, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
