Why monitor blood pressure after 18
High blood pressure, known as the "silent killer," is a serious disease that is spreading worldwide and threatens the lives of those who are unaware of it because it often causes no obvious symptoms and begins to seep into the body from the age of 18. High blood pressure often remains undiagnosed for years, while causing damage to the heart, kidneys, and blood vessels, and increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure. It is recommended to start regularly measuring blood pressure from the age of 18, even for healthy individuals, as early detection can prevent complications. Risk factors include excessive salt intake, obesity, lack of activity, psychological stress, smoking, and a family history. Signs of high blood pressure that warrant attention include frequent urination at night, ringing in the ears, headaches, sleep disturbances, and eye redness, but an accurate diagnosis depends on measurement. It is advised to measure blood pressure at consistent times, after resting, and to avoid stimulants and smoking before the measurement. Early and regular detection forms the primary line of defense against this disease, and monitoring blood pressure is essential to prevent life-threatening complications.
