Answer first
What is hypertension?
Hypertension means blood pressure remains consistently too high. It often causes no symptoms but can raise the risk of heart, stroke, kidney, and vision problems.
When should I see a healthcare provider?
Schedule care for repeated high readings, medication questions, overdue screening, or symptoms such as chest discomfort, severe headache, shortness of breath, or vision changes.
How is it evaluated?
Diagnosis uses properly measured readings over time plus review of medical history, medications, lifestyle, and cardiovascular risk. Additional testing may be appropriate.
What may treatment or management involve?
Treatment may combine nutrition, activity, stress and tobacco support, medication, home measurements, and regular follow-up.
Your care plan depends on your history, examination, and clinical findings. This page is general information and is not a diagnosis or treatment recommendation.
