Hypertension

Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, refers to the force of blood against the walls of arteries being consistently too high. It’s a prevalent condition and can potentially lead to severe health issues such as heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems if left untreated.

There are two types: primary (essential) hypertension and secondary hypertension. Primary hypertension develops gradually over time with no identifiable cause, while secondary hypertension is caused by an underlying condition such as kidney disease, hormonal disorders, or certain medications.

 

Managing hypertension often involves lifestyle changes like a healthy diet, regular exercise, reduced sodium intake, limited alcohol consumption, stress management, and sometimes medication prescribed by healthcare professionals to control blood pressure levels.

Regular monitoring and management of hypertension are crucial to minimize the risk of complications and maintain overall health. It’s essential for individuals with hypertension to work closely with healthcare providers to develop a personalized treatment plan.
