Causes of orthostatic hypotension
An abrupt drop in blood pressure brought on by changes in posture, including when someone stands up fast, is known as orthostatic hypotension, sometimes known as postural hypotension.

Blood typically pools in the legs when someone rises up after sitting or lying down due to gravity. Your body then strives to force blood higher so that it can oxygenate the brain.

Blood pressure can drop if the body would be unable to do this adequately, which can cause symptoms including dizziness, blurred vision, or fainting.

The symptom of orthostatic hypotension is low blood pressure.

Whenever the blood pressure in the arteries drops below normal levels, hypotension, also known as low blood pressure, develops.

Thru the blood vessels, the heart circulates blood throughout the body. Among these tubular organs are capillaries, veins, and arteries. Blood pressure is a measurement of the pressure exerted by the blood as it circulates through the arteries.
