Your doctor will examine you, inquire about your medical history, and look for any signs of high blood pressure. Using a stethoscope, your healthcare provider listens to your heart. Typically wrapped around your arm, a cuff is used to measure your blood pressure. Fitting the cuff is crucial. Blood pressure readings can differ if it is too high or too low. Using a small hand pump or a machine, the cuff is inflated. The arteries in the body are impacted by the prevalent condition of high blood pressure. Additionally known as hypertension. The blood's constant pressure against the artery walls is too high if you have high blood pressure. To pump blood, the heart has to work harder. Millimeters of mercury, or mm Hg, are used to measure blood pressure. A blood pressure reading of 130/80 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) or greater is typically considered to be hypertension. A hypertensive emergency or crisis is defined to have a blood pressure reading of greater than 180/120 mm Hg. If you or someone you know has these blood pressure readings, get emergency medical treatment. High blood pressure raises the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other major health issues if left untreated. Starting at age 18, it's critical to have your blood pressure monitored at least every two years. Some people require more frequent examinations.
