    High blood pressure is built up usually by stress anger but when your blood pressure is up in the glomerulus it is because of determination

    The glomerulus is sandwiched between two arterioles - afferent arterioles deliver blood to the glomerulus, while efferent arterioles carry it away. Constriction of efferent arterioles as blood exits the glomerulus provides resistance to blood flow, preventing a pressure drop, which could not be achieved if blood were to flow into venules, which do not really constrict. The two arterioles change in size to increase or decrease blood pressure in the glomerulus. In addition, efferent arterioles are smaller in diameter than afferent arterioles. As a result, pressurized blood enters the glomerulus through a relatively wide tube, but is forced to exit through a narrower tube.
