Often referred to as a \u201csilent condition,\u201d it may not show noticeable symptoms until serious complications arise. High blood pressure occurs when the force of blood against artery walls remains consistently high. Over time, this can strain the heart and damage blood vessels. Common causes include excessive salt intake, stress, obesity, lack of exercise, and genetic factors. Symptoms may include headaches, dizziness, fatigue, and shortness of breath, though many people experience no symptoms at all. Treatment typically involves lifestyle changes such as a healthier diet, regular physical activity, stress management, and prescribed medications when necessary. Regular blood pressure monitoring and medical guidance are key to preventing heart disease and stroke.
