What Causes Hypertension? Most elevated blood pressure doesn't have a cause and is called essential or primary hypertension. In cases where the cause of high blood pressure is known (called secondary hypertension), it is usually the result of kidney problems, hormonal disorders, abnormalities of the aorta (the main artery that carries oxygenated blood to the body), or a narrowing of certain smaller arteries. Doctors screen teens with high blood pressure for secondary causes with physical examination and laboratory testing. Some teens may inherit the tendency toward higher blood pressure from one or both parents. Kids and teens who are obese are at a higher risk for hypertension. Lack of exercise makes it easier to become overweight and increases the chance of high blood pressure.  In some cases, medications like steroids can cause high blood pressure.

How Is Hypertension Treated? Hypertension can be a temporary or lifelong disease, depending on the cause. Anyway, the most important thing is to keep it under control. People who manage their high blood pressure with a treatment program lower their risk of having serious complications as they get older. Although medication may be necessary to control high blood pressure, in many cases it can be managed with lifestyle improvements, such as exercising and dietary changes (eating less fat and salt), avoiding alcohol and cigarettes. If you've been diagnosed with hypertension, you and your doctor will work as a team to decide on the best course of action for you.
