Many people with hypertension won’t experience any symptoms. It may take years or even decades for the condition to reach levels severe enough that symptoms become obvious. Even then, these symptoms may be attributed to other issues. A few people with high blood pressure may have:
Headaches
Shortness of breath
Nosebleeds
In severe cases, hypertension can cause:
Chest pain, also called angina
Heart attack, which occurs when the blood supply to the heart is blocked and heart muscle cells die from lack of oxygen
Heart failure, which occurs when the heart cannot pump enough blood and oxygen to other organs in your body
