Hypertension is a long term therapeutic condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is elevated. Hypertension does not have any symptoms. Long term high BP can lead to many heart diseases like coronary artery disease, heart failure, stroke, vision disease etc. The two types of hypertension are:

               Primary Hypertension: Unknown cause; Secondary Hypertension: Lifestyle changes
