HYPERTENSION Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a common, serious condition where artery walls face persistently high force from blood pumped by the heart, increasing risks for heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure, often with no symptoms, making regular checks crucial; it's diagnosed when readings are 130/80 mmHg or higher and managed through lifestyle changes and medication, notes the World Health Organization (WHO)](https://www.who.int/health-topics/hypertension) and the [Mayo Clinic. Symptoms Often asymptomatic: Most people have no signs, earning it the "silent killer" nickname. Severe cases: Dangerously high blood pressure (hypertensive crisis) can cause headaches, shortness of breath, nosebleeds, vision changes, chest pain, or dizziness. Causes & Risk Factors Lifestyle: High salt/fat diet, lack of exercise, obesity, excessive alcohol, smoking, stress, and poor sleep. Genetics & Age: Family history and aging (especially over 65) increase risk.
BLOOD PRESSURE pressure is the force of circulating blood against artery walls, measured as two numbers (systolic/diastolic), e.g., 120/80 mmHg, indicating pressure during heartbeats (top number) and between beats (bottom number). Normal is <120/80, while high blood pressure (hypertension) is ≥130/80 mmHg and increases risks for heart attack, stroke, and kidney issues. Lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, and stress management help control it, though medication may be needed.
