If you are not hypertensive, excitement will not cause hypertension, but if you already have hypertension, excitement can stimulate an increase in blood pressure. Hypertension is mostly associated with factors such as genetics, poor lifestyle and environment, but can also be caused by other diseases, pregnancy or medications. Emotional excitement can occur, causing sympathetic excitation and stimulating increased secretion of vasoconstrictor-active substances such as catecholamines and epinephrine, leading to an increase in blood pressure. Patients with hypertension are prone to hypertensive crisis and even cerebrovascular accidents, which can be life-threatening, if their blood pressure rises suddenly. Therefore, patients with hypertension should pay attention to controlling their emotions, maintaining a normal state of mind and avoiding large fluctuations in blood pressure in order to improve the quality of life.
