Disease/Condition Glossary

High blood pressure (hypertension): It is a condition in which the blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels, leading to hypertension. This condition can lead to hardened arteries (blood vessels), decreasing the blood and oxygen flow to the heart. Symptoms of high blood pressure include headache, dizziness, nose bleed, changes in vision, chest pain, weakness and dyspnoea (shortness of breath). However, most of the time, the signs and symptoms of hypertension are none.

Tachycardia: It is a condition in which the heart beats faster than usual, usually 100 beats per minute. Symptoms include lightheadedness/dizziness, palpitations/rapid heartbeat, fatigue, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, and fainting.
