High Blood Pressure Symptom – Is there one true symptom of High Blood Pressure?
 
The Search for a “High Blood Pressure Symptom” (singular) is a bit like a medieval grail quest and the answer?......

Well the answer my friends might just as well be “blowing in the wind” because the actual answer to this good question reader sadly is that there isn’t one good answer or one true Symptom of High Blood Pressure.


As has been mentioned on countless occasions by many good and reliable sources, this condition has a plethora of symptoms, all of them hidden and all of them just as deadly.

Of the many symptoms of High Blood Pressure, complaints such as nosebleeds are commonly found in people in the early stages of high blood pressure unlike the more serious symptoms of the disease at its later stages.

There are a great many factors to consider when trying getting to grips with High Blood Pressure or even trying to understand it. Family History is important - Hypertension often appears in families. If one parent has hypertension then there is a better than average chance that their children will also have it.

A sedentary lifestyle (being lazy to you and I) contributes to you putting on weight. On the other hand, regular exercise helps in the control of your weight; it also helps relieve stress, anxiety and other related conditions.

Whether Stress can cause chronic Hypertension in isolation is not completely proven however.
