Hypertension Q & A

What are the symptoms of high blood pressure?

High blood pressure usually causes no noticeable symptoms, which means many men and women can have hypertension without knowing it until they have a more serious medical event like a heart attack or stroke. Having blood pressure evaluated on a regular basis is important for diagnosing hypertension as early as possible so it can be treated.

What risk factors are associated with high blood pressure?

High blood pressure is more common among people who:

are older
are overweight or obese
lead inactive or sedentary lives
smoke
abuse alcohol
consume diets high in unhealthy fats
have a family history of hypertension or heart disease
have diabetes

How is high blood pressure treated?

At Health One Family Medicine, we offer a thorough treatment plan for hypertension, including lifestyle changes, medication, dietary changes, and more. Being more physically active, eating a diet low in unhealthy fats and high in fiber, quitting smoking, and losing excess weight may help lower pressure in many people.

We encourage our patients to schedule regular appointments with us regularly to ensure we can offer ongoing care to them, assess their medicine dosage, and make changes to their care plan according to their condition and risk factors. Sometimes, other tests will be recommended to check for heart disease, diabetes or other medical issues.
