About Hypertension in Hyderabad
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a chronic condition in which the force of blood against the artery walls is consistently elevated, requiring the heart to work harder to circulate blood. It is often called a "silent" condition because it typically produces no symptoms for years while quietly damaging blood vessels, the heart, kidneys, and eyes. Hypertension is diagnosed through repeated blood pressure measurements and is classified by severity based on standardised readings. Left uncontrolled, it is a leading risk factor for heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, and other serious complications. It is highly manageable with lifestyle changes and medication, but requires consistent long-term monitoring and treatment.
