As a result, you might experience: 1 Damaged and narrowed arteries. High blood pressure can damage the cells of your arteries' inner lining. 2 Aneurysm. Over time, the constant pressure of blood moving through a weakened artery can cause a section of its wall to enlarge and form a bulge (aneurysm). The damage can build over time. The excess strain and resulting damage from high blood pressure (HBP or hypertension) causes the coronary arteries serving the heart to slowly become narrowed from a buildup of fat, cholesterol and other substances that together are called plaque. This slow process is known as atherosclerosis. High blood pressure with a known cause is called secondary hypertension. Between 5% and 15% of people with high blood pressure have secondary hypertension. In many of these people, high blood pressure results from a kidney disorder. Many kidney disorders can cause high blood pressure because the kidneys are important in controlling blood pressure.

Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a long-term medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated. High blood pressure usually does not cause symptoms. Long-term high blood pressure, however, is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, peripheral vascular disease, vision loss, chronic kidney disease, and dementia. High blood pressure is classified as either primary high blood pressure or seco In these situations, high blood pressure can cause: 1 Memory loss, personality changes, trouble concentrating, irritability or progressive loss of consciousness. 2 Stroke. 3 Severe damage to your body's main artery (aortic dissection) 4 Chest pain. 5 Heart attack. High blood pressure dangers: Hypertension's effects on your body High blood pressure is a risk factor for more than heart disease. Discover what complications high blood pressure can cause.

This eMedTV Web page describes the effects of high blood pressure on these vital organs in more detail. Main Content: Your arteries and high blood pressure High blood pressure The arteries are the large blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to all the organs and muscles of the body, to give them the energy and oxygen they need.
