Hypertension

Hypertension or High Blood Pressure (HBP) is called a "silent killer". Most people with hypertension are unaware of the condition because it may have no warning signs or symptoms. Therefore, it is essential that blood pressure is measured regularly.
HBP is when the force of blood flowing through your blood vessels, is consistently too high.
The best way to know if you have HBP is to have your blood pressure checked.
