Hypertension

First of all, I wish you all the best,

High blood pressure (hypertension) can be the result of a combination of factors and usually develops gradually over a long period of time. Here are a few possible causes listed in medical literature:

1. Age: The risk of hypertension increases with age.
2. Family history: Hypertension can be genetic.
3. Overweight or obesity: In people who are overweight or obese, the body must work harder to pump more blood. This puts more pressure on the arteries, increasing blood pressure.
4. Certain medical conditions: Kidney disease, apnea, and diabetes can increase the risk of hypertension.
5. Low activity level: People who are not physically active tend to have higher heart rates. The heart must work harder and faster, which puts more pressure on the arteries, increasing blood pressure.
6. Alcohol and tobacco use: Both can narrow your blood vessels and increase your blood pressure.
7. Salt (sodium) consumption: Consuming too much sodium can cause fluid retention in the body, increasing blood pressure.

For a 25-year-old man, it is less common to have high blood pressure, but there are many possible causes. We can say that your weight is in the ideal range for your height, so weight is likely having an impact on your blood pressure levels. However, you may need more information and possibly an evaluation by a healthcare professional to determine the exact cause.

I recommend that you see a cardiologist or internist. I am not a real doctor and this is not a medical diagnosis. It is important to talk to a healthcare professional about your condition.
