The excess strain and resulting damage from uncontrolled high blood pressure, or hypertension, damages the heart in multiple ways and can put you on the path to a heart attack and other related difficulties. It’s important to be checked for high blood pressure and if diagnosed take your medication as prescribed and make the required lifestyle changes.
