What is Hypertension?
a condition that occurs when the pressure in your arteries is consistently above the normal range. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the wall of the arteries.
Hypertension is also called the silent killer because it has no symptoms and can cause serious disease if it's left untreated for a long time.
How do I know if I have hypertension?
You usually can't tell if you have hypertension. The only way to know your blood pressure is to have it measured by your doctor. Two numbers are used to describe blood pressure.
Blood pressure is not the same throughout the day. It varies with time of day or night, exercise, excitement or stress. Because of this normal variation it is important to measure the Blood Pressure a few times on different occasions.
If the Blood Pressure reading is consistently equal to or higher than 140 systolic and 90 diastolic or both, then the doctor will diagnose you as having high blood pressure or hypertension.
What causes hypertension?
9 out of 10 people who have hypertension do not have apparent reason for it. However there are certain groups of people who are at higher risk. People who are overweight, smoke, eat salty and fatty regularly, drink excessively, physically inactive or suffer frequent stress are generally at a higher risk of developing high blood pressure.
People who have a family history of hypertension are also more likely to develop hypertension. There are also less common causes of hypertension due to disorders of the kidney and endocrine glands.
How is Hypertension treated?
Hypertension can be controlled by life style changes or if necessary by medication. Very often losing weight, exercising, eating less salt, quitting smoking and avoiding excessive alcohol is all you need to control your blood pressure. When changing lifestyle does not help control blood pressure, the doctor may prescribe medications. Even when taking medication, one should continue the healthy lifestyle, as it will help to control blood pressure more effectively.
