Original Content: High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a common condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is high enough that it may eventually cause health problems, such as heart disease. Blood pressure is determined by the amount of blood your heart pumps and the amount of resistance to blood flow in your arteries. The more blood your heart pumps and the narrower your arteries, the higher your blood pressure. You can have high blood pressure for years without any symptoms. Uncontrolled high blood pressure increases your risk of serious health problems, including heart attack and stroke. High blood pressure typically develops over many years, and it affects nearly everyone eventually. Fortunately, high blood pressure can be easily detected. And once you know you have high blood pressure, you can work with your doctor to control it. Treatment may include making lifestyle changes and, if needed, medication. Blood pressure is made up of two numbers. The first number (systolic pressure) measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats. The second number (diastolic pressure) measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart rests between beats. If the measurement reads 120/80mmHg, your blood pressure is considered normal (120 is the systolic pressure, and 80 is the diastolic pressure). When your blood pressure is high, it puts extra strain on your blood vessels and heart. Over time, this extra strain increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke. High blood pressure is also a contributing factor to kidney failure and blindness.

Revised Content: Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a common condition where the force of blood against artery walls is elevated, potentially leading to health issues like heart disease. Blood pressure depends on the volume of blood pumped by the heart and resistance to blood flow in arteries. Increased blood supply and constricted arteries result in higher blood pressure. High blood pressure often goes unnoticed for years without any symptoms, but it raises the risk of severe health problems such as heart attacks and strokes. It typically develops gradually over time, affecting almost everyone eventually. Luckily, it can be easily detected, and once identified, it can be managed with the help of a healthcare provider through lifestyle modifications and medication if necessary. Blood pressure consists of two numbers. The first number (systolic pressure) measures artery pressure during heart contractions, while the second number (diastolic pressure) measures arterial pressure when the heart is in a resting state. A reading of 120/80mmHg is considered normal (120 being the systolic pressure and 80 being the diastolic pressure). Elevated blood pressure puts excess strain on blood vessels and the heart, raising the risk of heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure, and blindness over time.
