Hypertension has been discovered to be either hereditary or self inflicted by an adult who doesn’t take care of his or her life issues effectively.
Hypertension occurs to an individual especially an adult due to life high tension, worries, imagination, fear of life issues. In an economic situation within the Nigeria Nation, it was projected by a prominent Radio Station which is Fresh FM Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria, by Mr. Gbenga Oresegun on a weekly Morning Show tagged Freshly Press, base on their research from a reliable source, it was gathered that 76.2 Million Nigerians are living with hypertension.
While more than 50% of those Nigeria that are hypertensive are youths due to 33% unemployment rate.
Imagine a youth who laboured to study in Nigeria’s higher institution, with the hope of having a good Job and better life at the aftermath of his or her studies, but with the negligence of the government to cater for the vast majority of the Nations population, most especially the youth, this brought the youths in that condition to an hypertensive state.
Although some youths pathetic lifestyle is so alarming and preposterous, how can you wake up in the early hours of the day, then the next thing you do as a youth during your youthful age is to start smoking and drinking hard drugs?, some youths are helpless in this condition.
Institutions whose deem it fit to handle the situation of pathetic lifestyle of youths in Nigeria and most especially Nations of the World are encouraged to wake up to their task, most especially Government parastatals, they need to wake up to the demand.
Also everyone needs to always adhere to medical check up in a reputable and prominent Medical Centers nearest to them, because health is wealth.
One of the most disease that kill faster if not well manage is Hypertension.
Some are experiencing partial hypertension and there are medication for that.
If you’re are diagnosed of Hypertension, congratulations!!! that’s not the end of the world for you, I knew someone very close to me who lived a fulfilled life while being hypertensive for more than 2 Decades, throughout those two decades he never miss his medication, and he lived till 73 Years of age before he passed on to Glory.
Most people around him never knew he had hypertension, he ate good food and adhere strictly to his medication.
Being diagnosed of Hypertension is not a death pronouncement or sentence.
One thing you need to do, is that do not be involved in an aggressive situation because that can uproar your blood pressure.
And to any other person, the moment you’re feeling any symptoms in your body in regards to your health, the best person to consult immediately is your Medical Doctor, if you notice that you need a caring hand alongside with your Medical Doctor, you can inform your families and your religious leader, speaking from experience, religion is analgesic to the condition of Man.
