At Doctor Help, we know that hypertension can feel like an invisible enemy. That’s why we offer professional advice and online blood pressure prescription services to help you regain control with clarity and confidence.
What Is Hypertension?
Hypertension (high blood pressure) is a problem that develops when the amount of pressure exerted by the blood in the arteries has been continuously too much. When not medicated, it escalates the chances of stroke, heart disease, kidney damage and other severe issues.
Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular, which is among the leading causes of preventable deaths in Australia.
A normal blood pressure reading is generally considered to be around 120/80 mmHg, but this can vary with age and individual health.
Low blood pressure is generally defined as readings below 90/60 mmHg, but symptoms and individual tolerance are more important in assessing clinical significance.
What Causes Hypertension?
High blood pressure is influenced by a mix of lifestyle, genetic, and environmental factors. In Australia, common causes and risk factors include:
Unhealthy diet
Diets high in salt, saturated fats, or alcohol can push blood pressure above the healthy range.
Lack of physical activity
Sedentary lifestyles make it harder for the heart to stay strong and resilient.
Excess weight
Being overweight places extra strain on the heart and blood vessels.
Smoking
Damages arteries, making them stiffer and narrower.
Stress
Prolonged stress can contribute to higher readings.
Family history and age
The risk increases with age and a genetic predisposition.
Chronic conditions
Diabetes, kidney disease, and sleep apnoea are closely linked to hypertension.
What Are the Symptoms of Hypertension?
One of the biggest challenges of hypertension is its “silent” nature. According to the Heart Foundation, most people have no obvious symptoms. That’s why regular checks with a blood pressure monitor are so important.
However, in some cases, people may experience:
Persistent headaches
Dizziness or blurred vision
Shortness of breath
Chest discomfort
Episodes of nosebleeds
