High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a chronic condition where the force of blood against the artery walls is consistently too high. Over time, uncontrolled hypertension can lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and vision loss. At our heart clinic in Bangalore, we offer personalized evaluation and treatment for high blood pressure, helping patients take control of their health and reduce long-term risks.
"High blood pressure is often called the 'silent killer' because it shows no symptoms until major damage has occurred — early detection and control are key to prevention."
Dr. Basavaraj Utagi, one of Bangalore’s trusted cardiologists, specializes in managing all stages of hypertension, from early-onset to complicated or resistant cases. Our approach combines accurate diagnosis, lifestyle counseling, and tailored medication strategies to maintain healthy blood pressure and protect vital organs.
Most people with high blood pressure have no symptoms.
However, in some cases, it may cause:
– Headaches
– Dizziness or blurred vision
–
Chest discomfort
– Fatigue
– Nosebleeds (rare)
If untreated, hypertension may lead to:
– Heart attack or heart failure
– Stroke or
brain hemorrhage
– Chronic kidney disease
–
Retinal damage
– Peripheral artery disease
