Hypertension

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a condition where the force of blood against the artery walls is consistently too high, potentially leading to serious health issues like heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems. Often called the “silent killer,” hypertension typically presents no symptoms until significant damage has occurred, making regular blood pressure checks crucial. Risk factors include genetics, age, diet, lack of exercise, obesity, and stress. Managing hypertension involves lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, reducing salt intake, and, in some cases, medication to lower blood pressure and reduce health risks.
