Low Blood Pressure: Hypotension

Our body has a definite blood pressure. A drop in the normal pressure is a condition termed as hypotension, more popularly known as blood pressure. Our normal blood pressure is 120/80 mm Hg. In Hypotension, the heart pumps the blood out of the arteries with much low power than it should normally. Some of the main causes include imbalanced nutrition or malnutrition, emotional instability, blood loss,etc. Lethargy, weakness and dizziness are the most common symptoms of low blood pressure. A person may even faint, if the blood pressure gets extremely low.
