Umfutho wegazi ophezulu ubizwa ngokuthi “umbulali othule” futhi lokhu akusona isimangalo samahhala! Kuyingozi enkulu yezifo ezingase zibulale noma ezikhubaza kakhulu, njenge-myocardial infarction noma unhlangothi.

Umfutho wegazi ophakeme, ngisho noma uphezulu kakhulu, ngokuvamile awubonwa ngoba awubangeli zimpawu. Ithiphu yami yokuqala yileli: Hlola umfutho wegazi lakho njalo uma kungenzeka, noma thatha amathuba ukuze uzithathele wona uma izisetshenziswa zitholakala ezindaweni ezithile zomphakathi, njengamakhemisi.

Ithiphu yami yesibili imayelana nokwelashwa. Kuyaqondakala ukuthi ukushintsha imikhuba yokuphila (ukuzivocavoca umzimba, ukugcina isisindo esinempilo, ukuyeka ukubhema, njll.) kubalulekile. Nokho, uma udokotela wakho kufanele akunikeze imithi, qiniseka ukuthi uwaphuza njalo futhi ikakhulukazi ungawayeki ngaphandle kweseluleko sakhe! Njengoba i-hypertension ingabonakali, iziguli eziningi zikholelwa ngephutha ukuthi zelashiwe, ziyeke imithi yazo futhi zifaka izingozi ezingadingekile!
