Hypertension is a blood pressure higher than 140 over 90 mmHg (millimeters of mercury). Modern lifestyle factors are responsible for a growing burden of hypertension: physical inactivity, salt-rich diets with processed and fatty foods, and alcohol and tobacco use. High blood pressure can also be secondary to other conditions - kidney disease, for example.
Hypertension Symptoms:
Tinnitus, lightheadedness, dizziness and/or vertigo, Recurrent or worsening distended headache or head heaviness, palpitations, Disturbed sleep (Insomnia). You consult your cardiologist to know the exact cause of hypertension.
