Hypertension means high blood pressure.
Blood pressure readings are measured in millimeters of Mercury (mmHg) and usually given as 2 numbers. For example, 140 over 90 (written as 140/90). * The top number is your systolic pressure, the pressure created when your heart beats. It is considered high if it is consistently over 140. * The bottom number is your diastolic pressure, the pressure inside blood vessels when the heart is at rest. It is considered high if it is consistently over 90. Either or both of these numbers may be too high. Pre-hypertension is when your systolic blood pressure is between 120 and 139 or your diastolic blood pressure is between 80 and 89 on multiple readings. If you have pre-hypertension, you are more likely to develop high blood pressure at some point. I hope this would be help full for you
thank you

Why does coronary heart disease cause pain?
Coronary artery disease, in and of itself, does not cause pain. What causes pain is the restriction of blood flow to the cardiac muscle itself, which causes a buildup of metabolic byproducts, including lactic acid and carbon dioxide (amongst others), which results in pain from ischemia and acidosis. The acidosis and ischemia result in abnormal function in the affected muscle, which, depending on where it is, may result in other symptoms, such as shortness of breath, congestive heart failure, and rapid or irregular heart rates. Coronary artery disease is the process that most frequently leads to the blockage of blood flow, but without the restriction of blood flow, does not cause pain.
What is a list of heart diseases?
There are many different types of heart disease and therefore there are many causes. A few examples: Cardiomopathy - an infection of the heart muscle can be caused by a virus Bacterial endocarditis is infection of the heart by bacteria. Coronary heart disease, however, is caused by blockage of the arteries that give the heart muscle its blood supply. This can lead to a heart attack. This type of heart disease develops over time especially if you have high cholesterol. Congenital heart defect is when you are born with a defective heart.
What are symptoms of viral cardiomyopathy?
The symptoms of a viral infection are known to us all. Fever, tiredness, runny nose, sore throat, sore body etc. The sore body is sore muscles which is a myositis (inflammation of skeletal muscle). Happening at the same time is often a myocarditis (inflammation of heart muscle). This is very common and it normally resolves without consequense. Occasionally in some people an unusual reaction occurs resulting in inflammation, scarring and destruction of the heart muscle. This leads to heart failure symptoms and a diagnosis of cardiomyopathy.

What is hypertensive emergency?
A hypertensive emergency (sometimes called malignant hypertension) is excessive blood pressure which causes damage to the brain, eyes, kidneys, or heart. The exact level of blood pressure is different for every person, but hypertensive emergency does not usually occur unless the blood pressure is higher than 220/120. Some symptoms may include: Brain: headache, confusion, stroke-like symptoms, difficulty speaking, vertigo Eyes: vision loss, visual disturbances (flashing, dark spots), eye pain Kidneys: renal failure, hematuria, decreased urine output Heart: chest pain, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure Treatment includes lowering the blood pressure by 20-30% within 1 hour, then return to more normal levels within 12-18 hours. If it is truly hypertensive emergency, this is accomplished with IV medications. The treatment requires hospitalization and stabilization.
