❤️ Why Early Hypertension Treatment Matters

High blood pressure is often called the “silent killer” because many patients have no symptoms until complications occur.

If you have:

  • Persistent high blood pressure
  • Family history of heart disease
  • Diabetes or kidney disease
  • Chest discomfort or shortness of breath

Early evaluation by a cardiologist can significantly reduce long-term cardiovascular risk.
