High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is often called the "silent killer" because it usually has no symptoms. Most people with high blood pressure have no symptoms, even if blood pressure readings reach dangerously high levels. However, a few people with high blood pressure may experience the following symptoms:

• Headaches
• Shortness of breath
• Nosebleeds
• Severe headaches
• Fatigue or confusion
• Vision problems
• Chest pain
• Difficulty breathing
• Irregular heartbeat
• Blood in the urine
• Pounding in your chest, neck, or ears
• Seizures

These symptoms may indicate a hypertensive crisis, which requires immediate medical attention. However, most of the time, high blood pressure does not cause any symptoms, and the only way to know if you have it is to get your blood pressure checked. It is important to have regular checkups with a healthcare provider, even if you feel healthy, to monitor your blood pressure and detect any potential problems early on.
