Hypertension is a prevalent disease that is roaming our population over decades, and in the foreseeable future there is still not a definite cure. What is behind this disease and how did it become a silent killer among all other cancers? Let’s take a look.
To put it simply, hypertension is when the pressure in your blood vessels is too high (140/90 mmHg or higher). Most people do not get any signs and symptoms before reaching a critical threshold, which then health plummets.
高血壓喺現代人生活中已經看似成為一個無法避免的事實，也沒有一個完全治療方法。但其實有啲咩因素令到佢被稱為都市人的隱形殺手？我地黎睇睇。
簡單而言，當我地上下壓達到 140/90mmHg 的時候，咁就會醫學上診斷為高血壓。但大部份人未到危險血壓時都仲未有任何明顯病徵，令到有唔小人未得到適似的治療。
