High blood pressure can damage the blood vessels as well as different organs in your body. The higher and longer the blood pressure remains uncontrolled the more complications caused by Hypertension. Uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to:

Heart Attack or Stroke

High blood pressure can cause the arteries to become hard and thick. It also puts extra stress on your heart to pump blood throughout your body, which can result in heart attack, failure, stroke and other complications.

Effect Blood Sugar Level

If you have diabetes you should regularly check your blood pressure level. According to American Diabetes Association, the combination of high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes is particularly lethal and can significantly increase your risk of having a heart attack or stroke.

Kidney Disease

High blood pressure damages blood vessels in our kidneys, reducing their ability to work properly. These damaged blood vessels stop our kidneys from removing wastes and extra fluid out of the body. As a result, extra fluid starts to build up in the blood vessels and that may then raise blood pressure, even more, creating a vicious cycle. This might eventually lead to kidney failure.

Aneurysms

Complications caused by Hypertension includes your blood vessels to weaken a section of its inner wall to enlarge and form a bulge (an aneurysm). An aneurysm may form at any part of our body and when it ruptures, it might cause a life-threatening situation.

Vision Loss

Lack of blood flow to the retina may lead to thickened, narrowed or torn blood vessels. This may block the optic nerve and may eventually lead to vision loss.

Dementia

As we have discussed before, high blood pressure cause problems by damaging and narrowing the blood vessels in our brain. This blocks our blood vessel from carrying oxygen to different part of the brain or burst eventually. Both can cause serious cell damage and lead to dementia.

So, if you have hypertension, probably it’s time to think about changing to a more healthy lifestyle. That will not only reduce delay the complications of hypertension, it will also keep you healthy and active. For more hypertension tips & resources down
