High Blood Pressure is when blood pressure is the force e&erted by the blood against the walls of blood vessels, and the magnitude of this force depends on the cardiac output and the resistance of the blood vessels.
UTIs are a key reason were often told to wipe from front to back after using the bathroom. Thats because the urethra ## the tube that transports urine from the bladder to the outside of the body ## is located close to the anus. Bacteria from the large intestine, such as . coli, are in the perfect position to escape the anus and invade the urethra. *rom there, they can travel up to the bladder , and if the infection isnt treated, continue on to infect the kidneys.
Low blood pressure, also known as hypotension, is where blood pressure in your arteries is abnormally low. 'aturally low blood pressure is unlikely to cause any symptoms and is normally nothing to worry about.
