Can low blood pressure cause insomnia?

Low blood pressure is one of the abnormal symptoms of the human body. There are many reasons for low blood pressure. Bad eating habits and lack of rest can cause imbalance in the human organs and body systems and cause low blood pressure. Suffering from low blood pressure usually causes symptoms such as dizziness, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and weakness in the limbs, but people's understanding of low blood pressure is still insufficient. Let's talk about whether low blood pressure can cause insomnia?

Regarding the question of whether low blood pressure can cause insomnia, the answer is yes. Low blood pressure can possibly cause insomnia.

Low blood pressure may cause insomnia. 1. For patients with mild hypotension, there are no symptoms and no medication is required. The main treatment is to actively participate in physical exercise, improve physical fitness, increase nutrition, drink more water, eat more soup, and consume slightly more salt than normal people every day. 2. Severe cases are accompanied by obvious symptoms and must be given active treatment to improve symptoms, enhance quality of life and prevent serious harm. 3. Drug treatment for hypotension: You can go to a local hospital for examination and diagnosis, ask the doctor for treatment advice, and follow the doctor's instructions for treatment. In recent years, the alpha receptor agonist Guantong has been launched, which has the function of regulating vascular tension, increasing peripheral arterial and venous resistance, preventing large amounts of blood stagnation in the lower limbs, and constricting arterial blood vessels, thereby raising blood pressure, increasing blood supply to important organs such as the brain and heart, and improving symptoms of hypotension such as dizziness, fatigue, and easy fatigue.

Nursing for hypotension and insomnia:

(1) A normal and natural state of mind. There is no need to worry too much if you suffer from insomnia. The more nervous you are, the more you force yourself to fall asleep, which will be counterproductive. Some people become even more nervous and uneasy when they suffer from insomnia for several consecutive days, believing that if they continue to suffer from insomnia, their brain will not get enough rest and they will either die young or get sick. The excessive anxiety caused by this kind of worry is more harmful to sleep itself and health. It is recommended to use the Chinese medicine Yiyu'an Tea to relieve and improve insomnia.

(2) Find and eliminate the cause of insomnia. There are many factors that cause insomnia, as mentioned before. It is not difficult to find them as long as you pay a little attention. If the cause is eliminated, insomnia will heal itself. If insomnia symptoms are caused by illness, seek medical attention promptly. Don't think that insomnia is just a minor problem and not a disease and delay treatment.

(3) Relaxes the body and mind, which is beneficial for sleep. Take a walk outdoors for a while before going to bed to relax your mind, take a shower or soak your feet in hot water before going to bed, and then go to bed. This will help you fall asleep smoothly.

(4) Sleep induction. Listening to plain and rhythmic sounds, such as tapes of the sound of running trains, crickets chirping, dripping water, and the sound of spring rain, or music hypnosis tapes, can help you sleep and establish conditioned reflexes to induce sleep.

(5) Drink hot milk. Studies have shown that drinking a cup of sweetened hot milk before bed can increase the body's insulin secretion, increase the entry of amino acids into brain cells, and prompt the brain to secrete sleep-inducing serotonin. At the same time, milk contains trace amounts of morphine-like substances that have a calming and soothing effect, thereby prompting the body to fall asleep peacefully.

(6) Appropriate sleeping posture. Of course, sleeping posture should be comfortable and may vary from person to person. However, it is better to sleep on your side. Health expert Cao Cishan pointed out in "Sleeping Tips": "When lying on your left side, bend your left foot, bend your left arm, support your head with your hand, stretch your right foot, and place your right hand between your right thigh. Lying on your right side is the opposite." This sleeping posture is conducive to relaxation of the whole body and a good sleep.

(7) If you feel tired and have trouble falling asleep, you may want to eat some fruits such as apples, bananas, tangerines, oranges, and pears. Because the aroma of these fruits has a calming effect on the nervous system; the sugar in the fruits can inhibit the cerebral cortex and make it easier to fall asleep.

(8) If you suffer from insomnia due to being on a business trip and not being able to adapt to the environment, you should be mentally prepared and take the initiative to adjust yourself to be prepared for any eventuality, so as not to suffer from poor sleep due to nervousness and worry. At the same time, you can also use the above sleep-aiding methods to avoid insomnia. If you sleep well, you will naturally feel energetic when you wake up.
