About Blood Pressure
Blood pressure is the continuous physical force exerted by the heart as it squeezes and pushes blood through the arteries to the rest of the body. When the pressure is too high, it puts a strain on the heart and the arteries, causing an individual to suffer a stroke, a heart attack, or a kidney disease.
Why Check Blood Pressure?
Checking blood pressure is a way to maintain and manage your heart health. It is important to regularly monitor your blood pressure as much as possible to determine risks and prevent serious health problems from occurring.
