    Some people think that nausea can only be caused by high blood pressure. But it's not. Low blood pressure can also trigger this symptom.

    Nausea with hypertension may indicate that blood circulation is disturbed in the brain.

    In this case, edema occurs, which puts pressure on the vomiting center located in the brain stem.

    At the same time, along with nausea, there are such sensations:

    1. Throbbing pain in the occipital region.
    2. Dizziness and faintness.
    3. Strong vomiting.

    At the same time, pulse and vascular pressure rises, the heart begins to contract much more often. In addition, the volume of blood and cerebrospinal fluid increases. The result is severe nausea. The same symptoms occur in hypertensive crisis. In this case, it is necessary to use drugs against vomiting, if they do not give any effect, and the pressure rises, it is necessary to call an ambulance. Because it could result in a stroke. Nausea with hypertension just does not go away, and the reasons for its occurrence are quite serious. Therefore, in order to avoid serious consequences, it is better to immediately contact a specialist.

    High blood pressure, nausea, vomiting indicate the imminent onset of a hypertensive crisis. In this situation, every minute can count. Action must be taken as soon as possible. Each patient, having called an ambulance, tries to bring down the pressure on his own before her arrival. But this usually doesn't work. It is very important to remember which drugs and in what quantity were used. The specialist must be informed about this in order to avoid an overdose.

    Hypertension should never be ignored. At the first symptoms of the disease, you should consult a doctor.

    Only a specialist can prescribe the correct course of treatment, since it is necessary to take into account the individual characteristics of the organism.

    What to do with nausea

    If you feel sick at elevated pressure, this phenomenon cannot be ignored. Usually this does not go away on its own and gradually the state of health will only worsen. Anti-emetic drugs are not enough here.

    You need to use the following tools:

    1. Vasodilators.
    2. Hypotensive.
    3. Urinary.

    These drugs will help get rid of excess fluid in the body. This will reduce the load on the vessels and reduce pressure.

    mint tablets

    During the reduction of pressure, you can cope with vomiting with folk methods: sniff the oil of wormwood, chew a mint tablet or chewing gum.

    Low blood pressure can also cause nausea. This can happen due to overwork, overexcitation, low hemoglobin levels, exhaustion of the body, or any congenital pathologies.

    In this case, measures must be taken to increase the pressure. For some, it is enough just to drink a cup of coffee, a tablet of citramone. With high or low pressure, there are high chances that nausea, vomiting and even diarrhea will occur. There are even cases when the body temperature rises, which causes severe weakness. Therefore, it is very important to control the pressure. Since high and low rates can have negative consequences for the body.

    First aid for high blood pressure

    If nausea was a sign of a hypertensive crisis, before the doctor arrives, you must do this:

    • You need to take medicine to lower your blood pressure.

    Nitroglycerine

    • If you start to have a severe headache, you need to take a diuretic. This should be done if the patient has previously taken such medications.
    • If the heart begins to hurt, you need to take nitroglycerin.

    With a hypertensive crisis, you can not sharply reduce the pressure, as this can lead to heart failure. Also, do not use any new drugs.

    The room in which the patient is located must be ventilated. You can give him a warm foot bath to ensure the outflow of blood.

    During a hypertensive crisis, a large amount of stress hormones are released into the human body, therefore, in order to improve well-being, he needs the support of loved ones.

    The ambulance specialist will administer an antihypertensive agent and decide whether the patient needs to be hospitalized or not. Usually, those who have had a hypertensive crisis for the first time or if there are any complications are put in the hospital.
