Share:

Hypertension is known as the silent killer because it shows no symptoms. Most victims are unaware that they have the disease. However , symptom s such as headaches, shortness of breath, dizziness, chest pain and bleeding nose can reveal the need for medical attention. Early detection, treatment  and control of hypertension is very key.

What is Hypertension?

Hypertension is the rise in normal blood pressure beyond acceptable ranges. Check your blood pressure regularly as there would be no symptoms visible.

Hypertension is common to the black race than any other race. It is also peculiar to people who have a family history of the disease. Other factors such as obesity, use of alcohol and tobacco, mismanaged stress and physical inactivity contribute to hypertension.

Unmanaged hypertension can lead to a heart attack, stroke and other problems. Check your lifestyle to address your blood pressure. Refrain from smoking, avoid stress and stop eating unhealthily. Patients with hypertension are encouraged to engage in 30-min aerobic exercises like walking, jogging, cycling or swimming. Lastly, regular health checks are the best way to monitor your blood pressure.
