¿Puede el estrés afectar la presión arterial alta?

Pamela Cubas

well, yes.

When you're stressed your body releases hormones like adrenaline, the 'fight or flight' hormone. Adrenaline makes your heart beat faster and your blood pressure rise as a way of helping your body cope with the situation. Once stress has passed, your blood pressure should go back to normal if it is not a cronical problem

Yes, stress and anxiety can raise blood pressure temporarily due to increased heart rate and hormone release. Chronic stress might contribute to sustained high blood pressure.
To differentiate:- Anxiety often causes symptoms like rapid heartbeat, sweating, and chest tightness during stressful moments.- High blood pressure usually has no symptoms but can cause headaches or chest pain when severe.
Checking your blood pressure during these episodes can help distinguish between the two. If you're concerned, it's best to consult with a healthcare professional.

High cortisol levels induced by chronic stress can lead to sustained vasoconstriction and high blood pressure.  High blood pressure is an important risk factor for heart disease and stroke.
