What’s concerning about a high blood pressure is that it may come with no signs or symptoms. It is often referred to as a silent killer in the sense that there are no specific indicators of the disease.

According to the American Heart Association, “High blood pressure (HBP, or hypertension) has no obvious symptoms to indicate that something is wrong.” “The best ways to protect yourself are being aware of the risks and making changes that matter,” they add.

While high blood pressure cannot be cured, with the help of certain lifestyle changes and medicines, it can be managed efficiently.
