Hypertension

Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a chronic medical condition where the force of blood against your artery walls remains consistently elevated. Often called the “silent killer,” hypertension typically shows no symptoms but can lead to serious health complications including heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and vision problems if left untreated. Blood pressure readings of 140/90 mmHg or higher are generally considered hypertensive, though optimal control varies by individual health factors.

Hypertension can develop due to various factors, often involving a combination of lifestyle and genetic influences:

• Lifestyle Factors: Poor diet high in salt and processed foods, lack of physical activity, excessive alcohol consumption, and smoking
• Genetic Predisposition: Family history of high blood pressure significantly increases your risk
• Age-Related Changes: Blood vessels naturally become less flexible with age, increasing blood pressure
• Chronic Stress: Persistent mental and emotional stress can elevate blood pressure over time
• Obesity: Excess body weight forces your heart to work harder to pump blood
• Underlying Health Conditions: Kidney disease, thyroid disorders, sleep apnea, and diabetes can contribute to hypertension

Medications: Certain drugs including birth control pills, decongestants, and NSAIDs may raise blood pressure
