Chronic Stress: The Silent Driver Behind Growing Physical Ailments
- •Doctors observe a rise in physical complaints like hypertension, digestive issues, and fatigue, with chronic stress as the underlying cause, not infections or injuries.
- •Patients often present with symptoms like high blood pressure, acidity, or eczema, unaware that prolonged mental strain is the root problem.
- •Modern stress is continuous and intense, leading to chronically elevated cortisol and adrenaline, disrupting physiological balance across body systems.
- •A major challenge is that routine medical tests often appear normal, causing symptomatic treatment while the true stress-related driver remains unaddressed.
- •Experts emphasize treating stress as a legitimate, biologically real medical risk factor, advocating for integrated care including lifestyle changes and psychological support.
Why It Matters: Everyday stress is increasingly manifesting as real physical diseases, demanding holistic recognition and integrated treatment.
