What is high blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the force of your blood as it flows through the arteries in the body. When your heart beats, it pushes blood through your arteries. As the blood flows, it puts pressure on your artery walls.
High blood pressure is the condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is too high than normal.
Usually, hypertension is defined as blood pressure above 140/90 and is considered severe if the pressure is above 180/120.
