“It was not a heart attack. It was low blood pressure.”

When a 28 -year -old architecture student, Aarti Arora recently fainted at a crowded Delhi Metro station, passengers considered it a result of dehydration or exhaustion. But doctors diagnosed chronic hypotension.

In India, over 220 million people live with high blood pressure, making it a public health priority. Awareness campaign, screening and even insurance premiums often correspond around it. But about those who are always dizzy, when they stand very fast, or feel unusually tired despite being “healthy”? This is where hypotension, “invisible dip”, creeps.

A senior internal medical advisor Dr. at a private hospital in Gurgaon. Radhika Kulkarni says, “There is an excess on hypertension, which is appropriate, but the result is that hypotension often slips through cracks. It occurs especially in young or underported patients.”

Do I have low BP?

Hypotension is medically defined as BP which is below 90/60 mmHG. In some cases, low blood flow may deprive the brain, heart and organs of important oxygen and nutrients. Major warnings include persistent fatigue, lightness, standing, blurred vision, nausea and blackouts.

Left, hypotension risk falls, brain fog, organ damage, and even blow from extreme droplets. In other cases, low BP may also result in cardiac arrest.

Not long ago, we had an unfortunate incident of the passage of actress Sheffly Jariwala in just 42. After fasting for a day, the actress administered her normal drugs and an anti-aging injection despite being an empty stomach.

Later, he declined a severe decline in blood pressure, causing cardiac arrest and decline at home. The Mumbai Police said Jariwala “started trembling” before his fall and “BP fell quite into” BP “shortly before he was taken to the Bellevue Hospital, where he was declared dead.

His passing is not just an entertainment title – it is a Stark Reminder that can suddenly lead to a fictional episode, often ignored, can work hard and fast. Otherwise even in healthy persons.

Eminent cardiologist Dr. According to Naresh Trehan, there are two major criminals for a sudden heart attack: hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or thin cardiomyopathy and others have inherited electrical irregularities such as Brugada syndrome. This is the place where the heart electrical system is unstable and suffer from dangerous arrhythmia.

In a healthy heart, a decline in blood pressure (systolic pressure falls below 100 mmHg) can compromise blood flow to the heart.

But can low BP result in cardiac arrest that can kill? “Yes, severely low blood sugar (especially during fasting), can also play a role,” he tells us.

Why hypotension is wrong

Karan, an advertisement executive in Chennai, says, “I kept listening to all this in my head.” It often takes a collapse or ER trip before considering low BP.

Many patients are sent home with “just drinking water” or “relax more”. Cases are worse in rural India. Palmonologist Dr. Sanjeev Kumar said, “Young women report dizziness or extreme fatigue, but no one examines BP unless it is high. In areas with high anemia and dehydration, hypotension is often a cool epidemics.”

The reason for this has become an epidemic in India as hypotension is no longer limited to elderly patients alone. Across India, less BP is usually seen in young urban people who regularly give up their food, or in a burnout regime. Anemia, PCOS, thyroid flaws, or with malnutrition and heat with rural communities, also prone to such sudden dips in their blood pressure.

what should you do?

Experts recommend an increase in regular BP checks. The manufacture of public awareness around hypotension is important. More health camps need to be held around this issue, ABHA-competent telemedicine, and corporate screening should start logging down low BP trends, not just high readings. The AI-S) monitor monitors that triggers the elite of hydration, and in real time, fire alerts for hypothenical dips, can also set a longer way in revolution in initial detection.

In heart-health campaigns, with hypotension- #Notjustthighbp and #Lowbpcankill, have washtags can run social traction about this issue in hand.

“Hypotension is not always gentle; integrated tracking results in ABHA and Telehland may change,” Digital Health Policy Specialist, Mumbai Dr. Sheetal D’Suza says.

If you experience fatigue, lighting, chest restlessness or fainting-do not chalk it for stress. These can be indicated that your blood pressure is dangerously low.

Even a single episode shows how fast hypotension can be fatal. Let’s shift the focus: The pressure is not just about being high, even less.
