how does blood pressure work?

471 views

I used to think blood pressure the same way as a can of fizzy drink, that if there is too much you must get rid of some blood by bleeding out. But somehow I don’t think that is the case as it sounds a bit extreme, and I’ve also heard of medication that lowers it(?).

That is true, the body does ad and remove water from the blood to lower its pressure. It does this by using salt but also your body can open and close the veins to also regulate blood pressure.
