I have a small problem with health. I have high blood pressure at just age of 25 please give me the solution.? Most of the time, no cause is identified. This is called essential hypertension. High blood pressure that results from a specific condition, habit, or medication is called secondary hypertension. Some reasons for secondary hypertension include: Use of certain medications (such as appetite suppressants, cold preparations, and migraine medications) Habitual alcohol use Excess sodium (salt) in your diet Obesity Anxiety or stress Arteriosclerosis Coarctation of the aorta Pain Renal artery stenosis Diabetes Drugs such as alcohol toxicity or cocaine Renal disease Have your blood pressure checked at regular intervals (as recommended by your health care provider) to monitor its condition and response to treatment. A proper diet, weight loss , exercise, and salt and alcohol reduction are often recommended for patients with hypertension or pre-hypertension.
