About signs of very high blood pressure.
There are “serious” signs that your blood pressure is too high.
“Headaches, shortness of breath, chest pain and nosebleeds usually don’t occur until your blood pressure is severely high or life-threatening. High blood pressure is a major risk factor for the development of heart diseases such as strokes and heart attacks,” says GP Irina Andreeva, especially for MedicForum.
However, just because a person has high blood pressure does not mean they will develop symptoms of the condition. Many people feel good. That’s why it’s important to check your blood pressure regularly, especially if you’re over 40.
High blood pressure usually develops over several years, and therefore you usually don’t notice any symptoms. It may take several decades for the condition to become severe enough for symptoms to become apparent, and even then the symptoms may be related to other problems.
“The harmful effects of high blood pressure usually take years to fully manifest. When your blood pressure is too high, it strains your heart, blood vessels and other organs.”
If this continues, it may increase the risk of potentially life-threatening conditions. Examples include heart disease, heart failure, strokes, kidney disease, aortic aneurysms, and Alzheimer’s disease.
