High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)
High blood pressure, or hypertension, is the sustained increase in the force with which blood circulates through the arteries, which over time can place greater demand on the heart and blood vessels.
Why monitor it: It usually causes no symptoms for a long time, so periodic measurement of blood pressure is the best way to detect it.
Associated factors: Family history, being overweight, high salt intake, a sedentary lifestyle, and stress are related to its appearance.
Which specialist treats it? The general practitioner carries out the routine follow-up, and the cardiologist or the internist step in when a more detailed approach is required. Checking your blood pressure regularly and discussing the results with a professional helps take care of cardiovascular health.
