Hypertension Specialist located in Katy Texas

Hypertension also called high blood pressure, hypertension is a fairly common condition in which pressure inside your blood vessels becomes too high and can put you at risk of heart disease, a stroke, or heart attack. Hypertension can affect one’s overall health and is known as a silent killer. In its early stages, high blood pressure doesn’t always present symptoms. As a result, it’s called the “silent killer.” As your blood pressure increases, you might experience symptoms such as headaches, nosebleeds, or shortness of breath. Regularly scheduled blood pressure screenings can help monitor your current risk factors for high blood pressure. After discussing your family history, what it takes to maintain a healthy diet, and the lifestyle changes you can make to help lower your risk for high blood pressure, it’s highly likely your heart health will greatly increase and your health remain optimal.

How is hypertension diagnosed and treated?

Our team at Complete Care Physicians can easily diagnose hypertension by using an inflatable arm cuff with a pressure gauge which will indicate whether your blood pressure is higher than it should be. If your current lifestyle is in need of redirecting in order to lower your blood pressure and heart rate, that’s what our doctors are here for.

Treating high blood pressure usually involves combining lifestyle changes and medications. High blood pressure can even increase your risk of metabolic syndrome, which is a group of disorders that negatively impact your body’s metabolism and overall health. Metabolic syndrome increases your chances of high cholesterol, which can clog and further narrow your arteries. If your blood pressure remains high for an extended amount of time, this can hurt your overall health for good.
