High BP Treatment Hospital in Himatnagar
High blood pressure (hypertension) means the force of blood against the artery walls stays too high – usually 140/90 or above. It often causes no symptoms but silently damages the heart, brain, kidneys and eyes. At Pluto Hospital, Himatnagar, high BP is diagnosed, the cause and damage are checked, and it is controlled with lifestyle changes and the right medicines.
Understanding the Condition
Understanding Blood Pressure
BP is written as two numbers – the top (systolic) and bottom (diastolic). A normal reading is below 120/80. Readings repeatedly at or above 140/90 mean high BP. Because it is usually silent, the only way to know is to measure it regularly.

Common Questions
High BP FAQs
What is a normal BP?
Below 120/80 is normal. 140/90 or above on repeated readings is high BP.
Can I stop BP medicines once BP is normal?
No. Normal BP usually means the medicine is working. Stopping can make BP shoot up.
Do BP medicines have to be taken for life?
Many people need them long-term, but weight loss, less salt and exercise can reduce the dose.
Can I check BP at home?
Yes. A digital BP machine is useful. Sit quietly for 5 minutes before checking and keep a record.
What happens if high BP isn’t treated?
It raises the risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney failure.
