Understanding Hypertension

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a common medical condition where the force of blood against the walls of your arteries is consistently too high. It can lead to serious health complications if left untreated and is often referred to as the “silent killer” because it may not cause noticeable symptoms until severe damage has occurred.

Common Symptoms of Hypertension

Hypertension is often asymptomatic, but in some cases, it can lead to symptoms such as:

  • Headaches: Frequent or severe headaches, especially in the back of the head.
  • Nosebleeds: Occasional or frequent nosebleeds.
  • Dizziness: Feeling lightheaded or dizzy.
  • Chest Pain: Chest discomfort or pain, particularly during physical activity.

Causes and Risk Factors of Hypertension

Hypertension can be influenced by various factors, including:

  • Genetics: A family history of hypertension can increase your risk.
  • Lifestyle: Poor diet, lack of physical activity, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption.
  • Medical Conditions: Conditions like diabetes or kidney disease can contribute to high blood pressure.
  • Stress: Chronic stress or high levels of stress hormones can raise blood pressure.

Diagnosis and Treatment

Diagnosing and treating hypertension typically involves:

  1. Telehealth Consultation: Schedule a telehealth consultation with one of our experienced healthcare providers to discuss your blood pressure readings, medical history, and lifestyle factors.
  2. Blood Pressure Monitoring: Regular monitoring of your blood pressure levels to establish a baseline and track changes.
  3. Lifestyle Modifications: Recommendations for dietary changes, increased physical activity, smoking cessation, and stress management.
  4. Medications: If necessary, prescription medications may be recommended to lower and control blood pressure.
  5. Regular Follow-Ups: Ongoing monitoring and adjustments to your treatment plan to maintain healthy blood pressure levels.
