Hypertension is a dangerous disease that can affect the quality of life. It can lead to a lot of problems including heart failure, kidney failure, and cerebral hemorrhaging. By maintaining a healthy lifestyle and visiting your physician on a regular basis, hypertension and relative diseases are much easier to control when diagnosed in their early stages.
Note: Do not be alarmed if an abnormal reading occurs. A better indication of an individual's blood pressure occurs after 2-3 readings are taken at the same time each day over an extended period of time. Consult your physician if test results remain abnormal.
