Hipertansiyon, also known as high blood pressure, is a medical condition where the force of blood against the walls of the arteries is consistently too high. This condition can lead to serious health issues, including heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage. It is often called a "silent killer" because it may not show noticeable symptoms until significant damage has occurred. Managing hipertansiyon typically involves lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and avoiding excessive salt intake. In some cases, medication may be prescribed to help control blood pressure levels. Regular monitoring is essential for those at risk to prevent complications.
