Hypertension is often referred to as a “silent killer” because most people have no symptoms. Many individuals with high blood pressure may feel perfectly healthy and unaware of their condition, which can lead to serious health problems (such as heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage) if left untreated. Regular monitoring and awareness are important for managing hypertension effectively.
