You certainly mean High Blood Pressure!
There is no first aid like a band-aid for a cut in the skin.
It is a serious matter and requires that u get professional help from a doctor.
Hypertension is called a "silent killer'' because it does not cause symptoms unless it is severely high and, without your knowing it, causes major organ damage if not treated.
High blood pressure is: 140 or above 90 or above
Prehypertension is: 120 to 139 80 to 89
Normal adult (age 18 or older) blood pressure is: 119 or below 79 or below
Your doctor will likely recommend lifestyle modifications, including losing excess weight, exercising, limiting alcohol, cutting back on salt, quitting smoking, and following the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet. The DASH eating plan is a low-fat and low-saturated-fat diet that emphasizes eating more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy foods.
Overall, your treatment will depend upon how high your blood pressure is, whether you have other medical conditions, such as diabetes, and whether any organs have already been damaged. Your risk of developing other diseases, especially heart disease, will be another important factor your doctor will consider.
