High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)

High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, becomes a medical emergency when it reaches extremely high levels. This acute, severe condition is often referred to as a hypertensive crisis. It can be categorized into two: Hypertensive Urgency (sudden blood pressure increase) or Hypertensive Emergency (blood pressure of 180/120 or higher).

When accompanied by symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, severe headache, nausea/vomiting. In that case, it’s crucial to seek emergency medical attention immediately. A hypertensive emergency can lead to life-threatening complications, including stroke, heart attack, pulmonary edema (fluid backup in the lungs), or kidney failure if not treated promptly.
