{{Fractured teeth}}<\/p>\n

Tooth fractures can be as a result of grinding both subconsciously and unconsciously. Unconsciously when you know you don\u2019t do it, yet there are visible cracks and fractures in your teeth, and subconsciously when you do it even though you don\u2019t intend to. Either way, it\u2019s unhealthy, and is caused by stress. It can also cause cavities and other dental issues, so you should take it seriously.<\/p>\n

{{You\u2019re gaining weight}}<\/p>\n

High level stress always attracts weight gain. This is because it increases your craving for foods that are high in calories, which adds to your weigh<\/p>\n

{{Aching joints}} <\/p>\n

Apart from regular pain in the joint as a result of tedious work or exercise, you can also feel pain in the joints just from being stressed out. This is because stress promotes low grade inflammation<\/p>\n

{{Recurring feeling of fatigue}}<\/p>\n

Stress promotes fatigue. You feel exhausted always even when you don\u2019t do tedious work. Sleeplessness is also another symptom<\/p>\n

{{Heavy headaches}}<\/p>\n

Is there always that splitting headache that hits after you talk for a while or you get involved in some work? It could be a sign you\u2019re seriously stressed out.<\/p>\n

{{Increased blood pressure}}<\/p>\n

To help you survive a precarious situation, stress fires up your sympathetic nervous system, which in turn cranks up your blood pressure so that your limbs and muscles are ready for action. None of that is an issue in the short term. But over time, chronically elevated Blood Pressure can overwork your heart, leading to damaged arteries and blockages. Be careful to put stress in check to forestall a rise in BP<\/p>\n
