Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps it around your body. It is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and is expressed with two numbers:
- Systolic Pressure: The higher number, representing the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats.
- Diastolic Pressure: The lower number, representing the pressure in your arteries when your heart is resting between beats.
Why Blood Pressure Matters
High blood pressure (hypertension) can lead to serious health problems, including heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage. Conversely, low blood pressure (hypotension) can cause dizziness and fainting. Regular monitoring and management are essential to prevent complications and ensure your heart and vascular system remain healthy.
