High blood pressure is diagnosed using a blood pressure monitor. This can be done in your doctor's office or in the comfort of your own home. Your doctor may also have a device called an ambulatory blood pressure monitor (ABPM) that can track your blood pressure over a 24-hour period to accurately determine your blood pressure trend. More in-depth tests may be conducted to identify any underlying conditions causing the elevated blood pressure or to assess any damage to your heart or another organ.
Treatment for high blood pressure includes lifestyle changes, which include eating a heart-healthy diet with less salt, exercising regularly, quitting smoking, and managing stress.
In some cases, medications are required and can include diuretics, ACE inhibitors, or beta-blockers. Treatment plans can vary greatly from person to person, so it is important to work closely with a healthcare provider to manage the condition effectively.
It is essential to diagnose and treat high blood pressure early to prevent significant complications and improve long-term health outcomes. Regular check-ups with a healthcare professional are crucial for anyone at risk.
