HYPERTENSION - THE SILENT KILLER

Don't say you don't have it until you have checked your BP!

Studies show that over 100 million Nigerians are hypertensive and the number keeps increasing because of factors like lifestyles and urbanity.

The Chief Medical Director, CMD, of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, LASUTH, Professor Adewale Oke, made this assertion at a public function in Lagos.

Professor Oke said hypertension constitutes a powerful health risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and sudden deaths among many Nigerians.

This is adduced to the lackadaisical lifestyle of people, such as poor eating habits, lack of regular exercise and non- regular medical check-ups. The doctor said regular check-up is the best way to prevent, treat and manage hypertension before it becomes full- blown.

According to him, hypertension is a silent killer because it has no warning signs to alert the sufferer and can only be detected through health check-ups.
