What is Low Blood Pressure ?

 

here are a number of things that can cause low blood pressure, including dehydration, certain medications, pregnancy, and viral infections.

What is blood pressure? Blood pressure is the force of your blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. The higher your blood pressure is, the harder your heart has to work to pump your blood around your body. And the lower your blood pressure is, the easier it is for your heart to do its job.

The term "blood pressure" is used to describe the force that blood exerts on the walls of arteries as it circulates throughout the body. Blood pressure is written as two numbers, systolic and diastolic, which represent the maximum and minimum pressure, respectively. So, a reading of 120/80 mm Hg (millimeters of mercury) verifies that your systolic blood pressure is 120 mm Hg and your diastolic blood pressure is 80 mm Hg.

Normal resting blood pressure for adults is range from 90/60-120/80mm Hg. People with blood pressures outside this range are considered to have hypertension (high blood pressure) or hypotension (low blood pressure).
