What is Hypertension?
Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, occurs when the force of blood against your artery walls remains too high over time. It’s often called the “silent killer” because it can go unnoticed for years, gradually causing damage to vital organs especially the kidneys, heart, and brain. In people with kidney disease or risk factors for kidney issues, uncontrolled blood pressure can accelerate kidney function decline and increase the risk of complications like heart disease or stroke.

Have a Question?
Still unsure about managing high BP? These FAQs cover what matters most to your kidneys and overall health.
Can hypertension cause kidney disease?
Yes. Chronic high blood pressure can damage the small blood vessels in the kidneys, reducing their ability to filter waste and fluid effectively.
Can I control blood pressure without medication?
In early or mild cases, lifestyle changes like a low-salt diet, exercise, and stress reduction can help. However, many people require medication to keep it in check.
How often should I check my blood pressure?
If you’ve been diagnosed with high BP or are at risk, check it at least once a week or as advised by your healthcare provider.
Is high blood pressure reversible?
While hypertension can’t usually be “cured,” it can be effectively managed with long-term care and monitoring.
