About Hypertension

Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a common condition characterized by consistently high levels of force of blood against the artery walls. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including obesity, unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity, stress, and certain medications. Untreated hypertension can lead to serious health complications, such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease. A normal blood pressure reading is typically less than 120/80 mmHg.
