Hypertension (HTN or HT), also known as high blood pressure (HBP), is a long-term medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated. In this, the force of blood against the artery wall is too high.

Common factors that can lead to high blood pressure include: A diet high in salt, fat, and/or cholesterol. Chronic conditions such as kidney and hormone problems, diabetes, and high cholesterol. Family history, especially if your parents or other close relatives have high blood pressure.

High blood pressure typically does not cause symptoms but few may experience headaches, shortness of breath, nosebleeds, flushing, visual changes or blood in urine.

Anything above 140/90 is usually defined as high blood pressure, and is considered severe if the pressure is above 180/120. Recurrent episodes of high blood pressure may over the period of time cause health conditions, such as heart disease and stroke.

There are many possible homeopathic treatments for hypertension, to be chosen based on various specific details of the person seeking treatment. Homeopathy simply use symptoms, and the sensation of experiencing those symptoms, to determine which homeopathic remedy will most effectively trigger the body's healing response.
Eating a healthier diet with less salt, exercising regularly and taking medication can help lower blood pressure.
