Named the dangerous consequences of hypertension for the body

If high blood pressure is not brought down for a long time, it can turn into dangerous consequences for health.

Sergey Ivanov, a cardiologist, said.

“Why is hypertension dangerous? This is the development of heart failure, this is damage to target organs — this is the brain, damage to the vessels of the heart and damage to the kidneys, — the doctor noted.

According to the cardiologist, the longer people walk with high blood pressure, the more they put their body in danger, because the inner lining of blood vessels gets damaged. This leads to the development of atherosclerosis and plaque formation.
