Hypertension is high blood pressure and yes, it is serious and can, over a long period of time, cause problems with your heart, kidneys, lungs, etc.

Yes hypertension is the medical name for high blood pressure, and yes, it can cause serious health problems. My husband suffered a severe haemorrhagic stroke last year because his, unknown at the time, high blood pressure, burst a weak artery in his brain. He has fortunately made a good recovery, though he is far from "normal"...he has had a lucky escape as it could have been a lot worse, he could have been severely brain damaged or paralysed in some way.
(many people are born with weakened arteries in their brain area and know nothing of it until something like that happens)

Hypertension can also cause strokes and heart problems.

High blood Pressure, yes it causes problem , you get bad migraine headache, swollen feet, sometime you can pass out. the best way to prevent this lower salt intake, and slow down on eating out all the time.
