What is High Blood Pressure? Symptoms and Causes
Learn about the causes, symptoms, and common treatments for high blood pressure. (+231770038082/+231880177766)

What is high blood pressure?
High blood pressure is also known as hypertension.
Blood pressure is a measure of how hard your blood pushes against your artery walls as it moves through your body.
It’s normal for blood pressure to go up and down throughout the day, but if it stays up, you have high blood pressure.
Your blood pressure consists of two numbers:
The first number measures the force as your heart beats. This is called systolic pressure.

The second number measures the force as your heart relaxes. This is called diastolic pressure. Someone with a systolic pressure of 120 and a diastolic pressure of 80 has a blood pressure of 120/80, or “120 over 80.”

An ideal blood pressure for an adult is less than 120/80. You have high blood pressure if your top number is 130 or higher, or your bottom number is 80 or higher, or both.

What are the main causes of high blood pressure?
In most cases, doctors can’t point to the exact cause of high blood pressure. However, several things are known to raise blood pressure, including:

Age: The risk for high blood pressure rises as you age. Through early middle age, high blood pressure is more common in men. Women are more likely to develop it after menopause.
Family history
Being overweight or obese: The more you weigh, the more blood you need to bring nutrients to your tissues. As the volume of blood goes up, so does the pressure against artery walls.
Not being physically active: Inactive people tend to have faster heart rates. That makes the force of blood against your arteries harder.
Using to***co: To***co use immediately raises your blood pressure on a temporary basis. In addition, the chemicals in to***co can damage the lining of your artery walls.
Too much salt
Too little potassium
Too little vitamin D
Drinking too much alcohol
Stress: High levels of stress.
