3. When the body undergoes acclimatization, it often reacts to it with reduced pressure. Most often it happens when visiting hot countries, when climbing mountains or while traveling to northern latitudes. This reaction is associated with a lower oxygen content in the air, as well as an unusually high, low temperature.
4. If the body undergoes pathological changes, the pulse and pressure decrease. This happens with the development of diseases such as vascular dystonia, hypofunction of the adrenal cortex and hypothyroidism of the thyroid gland, after getting head injuries, after surgery or in people who suffer from chronic diseases for a long time. Most often this condition is accompanied by headaches.
