Symptoms of high bp
Former resident Dr. Deepak Kumar at Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi Suman says that people get mild signs like mild pain in the head, dizziness, feeling fatigue or chest pressure.

There are arteries in our body which works to flow blood. But when the blood pressure starts to remain more continuously, the arteries are unable to bear more pressure and start shrinking. This causes causes problems like heart attack, stroke, kidney failure. If any part of the body is struggling with some disease with this problem, then a serious situation can be created.
