1.Hypertension Symptoms
High blood pressure is often called a silent killer because it doesn’t always have outward symptoms. That means you could have it for years and not know. It can quietly damage your heart, lungs, blood vessels, brain, and kidneys if it isn’t treated. It’s a major cause of strokes and heart attacks in the U.S.
2.Elevated Blood Pressure: A Warning Sign
Elevated blood pressure is consistently just above the normal level — anywhere between 120 and 129 for systolic pressure and less than 80 for diastolic pressure. People in this range are more likely to get heart disease than those with a lower reading. Your doctor may suggest lifestyle changes to help get your numbers down.
