Medical Condition (hypertension & Diabetes)
Chronic medical conditions like Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) and Diabetes are among the most common and serious health challenges worldwide. While they may not always show early symptoms, both conditions can lead to severe complications if left unmanaged. The good news? With the right care, lifestyle choices, and support, you can live a healthy and fulfilling life.
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
Hypertension occurs when the force of blood pushing against the artery walls is consistently too high. Often called a “silent killer,” it usually shows no symptoms but increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and vision problems.
Diabetes (Type 1 & Type 2)
Diabetes is a condition where the body doesn’t properly process sugar (glucose), leading to high blood sugar levels. Type 1 diabetes is usually diagnosed in childhood and requires insulin. Type 2 diabetes, the most common form, is often linked to lifestyle and can be managed through diet, exercise, and medication.
Complications if Left Uncontrolled:
Heart disease and stroke
Kidney failure
Nerve damage
Eye problems, including blindness
