Hypertension management

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a condition where the force of blood against the artery walls is too high. Managing hypertension usually involves lifestyle changes like a healthy diet, regular exercise, reducing salt intake, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol. In some cases, doctors may prescribe medications to help lower blood pressure. Regular monitoring is essential to ensure that levels remain within a healthy range. Overall, effective management reduces the risk of serious health issues, such as heart disease and stroke. It’s important to work with a healthcare provider for personalized guidance.
