High blood pressure (hypertension) explained clearly.
In this video, I break down:
• What blood pressure numbers mean (systolic and diastolic)
• What hypertension actually is
• How high blood pressure is diagnosed (clinic vs home readings)
• What 140/90 and 135/85 really mean
• When blood pressure becomes urgent (180/120 and red flags)
• Long-term complications of untreated hypertension
• How to lower blood pressure naturally
• When medication is recommended
• Blood pressure targets by age
Hypertension often has no symptoms, which is why it’s sometimes called a silent condition. Left untreated, high blood pressure increases the risk of stroke, heart attack, heart failure, kidney disease, and eye damage.
I explain how doctors confirm high blood pressure using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) or home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM), and how lifestyle changes like reducing salt, weight management, exercise, alcohol reduction, and stopping smoking can help lower blood pressure.
This video follows UK clinical guidance and is designed to help you understand your blood pressure readings without unnecessary panic.
If you have a symptom or condition you’d like discussed in a future video, leave it in the comments.
