Labile hypertension

Labile Hypertension is a form of hypertension characterized by frequent, sudden fluctuations in blood pressure. These fluctuations can occur several times a day, and can range from normal to high blood pressure levels.

Causes[edit | edit source]

The exact cause of labile hypertension is unknown, but it is believed to be related to the body's autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary functions such as heart rate and blood pressure. Other factors that may contribute to labile hypertension include stress, anxiety, and certain medications.

Symptoms[edit | edit source]

The symptoms of labile hypertension can vary greatly from person to person. Some people may experience no symptoms at all, while others may experience symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and chest pain. In severe cases, labile hypertension can lead to stroke or heart attack.

Diagnosis[edit | edit source]

Labile hypertension is typically diagnosed through a series of blood pressure readings taken over a period of time. Other diagnostic tests may include a physical examination, blood tests, and urine tests.

Treatment[edit | edit source]

Treatment for labile hypertension typically involves lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise, as well as medication to control blood pressure. In some cases, treatment may also involve addressing underlying conditions such as anxiety or depression.
