It is sometimes referred to as a "silent killer" because it usually shows no signs until major damage is done to the heart, kidneys, brain, or other essential organs. Usually below 120/80 mmHg is normal blood pressure; readings regularly beyond this threshold could point to hypertension.
Primary (essential) hypertension, which develops gradually over time without a clear cause, and secondary hypertension—which originates from underlying diseases such as kidney illness, hormone problems, or some drugs—are the two varieties. Among the risk factors are age, family history, obesity, a lazy lifestyle, heavy salt intake, stress, and smoking.
Unchecked hypertension can cause major medical problems, including renal failure, heart failure, stroke, and heart attacks. Regular blood pressure monitoring is used in diagnosis; lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet, consistent exercise, low salt intake, and stress management, may be necessary. Sometimes maintaining blood pressure within normal range calls for medication. Living a healthy life and avoiding difficulties depend mostly on early identification and constant management.
