@liam
High blood pressure results from damage to your arteries. It also causes damage to your arteries. Damaged arteries can develop a thrombus (clot) that causes a heart attack, stroke, or other acute vascular incident

High blood pressure causes damage to many organs. For example, the heart mucle becomes thicker, more rigid after having to pump against higher resistance for many years, and this can result in heart failure
