What is hypertension?

Blood pressure that stays high, usually 140/90 or above on repeated readings. It often causes no symptoms but raises the risk of stroke, heart attack and kidney disease, and is controlled with lifestyle changes and medicines.

These are general explanations, not medical advice. Your doctor’s advice about your own health comes first.
