Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, often has no symptoms. It occurs when the force of blood flowing through your blood vessels is consistently too high. Over time, this increased pressure can damage blood vessel walls and raise the risk for serious health problems, including heart attack, heart failure, stroke, and kidney disease.
According to the American Heart Association, the first step in managing high blood pressure is to know your numbers. Having your blood pressure checked allows you to understand your risk and determine whether treatment is needed.
If your blood pressure is elevated, you and your physician can work together to develop a plan to help manage it. This plan may include lifestyle changes or when appropriate, taking prescribed medications. Your physician can help determine the best approach for your individual needs.

With February being American Heart Month, it’s a good time to take stock and prioritize your heart health. Small, everyday choices can protect your cardiovascular system for years to come. Many risk factors associated with heart disease can be managed or prevented with healthy habits. The American Heart Association suggests:

• Getting regular checkups and talking to your doctor about blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and family history, which are factors that can increase your risk for heart attack or stroke.
• Eating a heart-healthy diet that includes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy oils.
• Staying active with at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity each week.
• Managing stress through calming activities and being sure to get 7-9 hours of quality sleep a night.
• Stopping smoking and limiting alcohol consumption.

Falls are a leading cause of serious injuries and death in adults aged 65 and older, according to the Harvard Medical School. The accidents can cause fractures and brain injuries, requiring hospital stays.

With intentional safety measures, many of these injuries can be prevented. To help create a safer living environment for older adults:

• Clear away hazards like loose throw rugs, electrical cords, and clutter on floors, stairs, or in hallways
• Make sure the living space is well lit and light switches are easy to reach
• Install sturdy handrails, grab bars, or raised toilet seats throughout the home
• Review medications regularly with a doctor since some may affect balance or cause dizziness
• Encourage regular physical activity to maintain strength and balance

These steps can help reduce the risk of falling and help older adults maintain safety and independence in their homes. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized recommendations.

After a concussion, when symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, balance challenges, or cognitive issues persist, a structured rehabilitation plan may help to support recovery. Rehabilitation can help with specific challenges such as:
• Physical therapy for dizziness, headaches, neck pain, or balance issues
• Occupational therapy for assistance with daily tasks and adaptations needed for concussions
• Speech therapy to help with cognitive, memory, attention, communication, or sensory-related issues
If you or someone you know has concussion symptoms that aren’t improving, be sure to follow up with your physician. Ask if rehabilitation may be right for you.

Looking for a New Year’s resolution that’s easy to keep and helps others?

Consider pledging to donate blood at least twice this year. Blood supplies are often at their lowest during winter months, especially January, because of the holidays, travel schedules, seasonal illnesses, and inclement weather. Fewer donors can lead to shortages nationwide.

Blood donations help a multitude of people, including those who have experienced accidents, surgeries, organ transplants, and chronic illnesses. According to the American Red Cross, a single blood donation can help save more than one life. Help make a difference by making a donation.

Feeling a bit sluggish this holiday season after all the festive meals and sweet treats? Slip into comfortable clothes, lace up your shoes, and take a brisk walk. Even a short daily walk can support your overall health and well-being. Regular walking is associated with:
• Increased energy levels as blood flow and oxygen circulation improve
• Enhanced mood due to the release of endorphins and reduced stress
• Improved focus and alertness, supported by increased cerebral blood flow
• Benefits to memory and cognitive function, especially with consistent activity
• Lower blood pressure and improved heart health
• Better balance and coordination, especially as walking helps strengthen lower-body muscles
• Support for maintaining a healthy weight, which contributes to reduced strain on joints and the cardiovascular system
• Improved blood sugar control, particularly after meals
Even a short 10-minute walk can make a meaningful difference. This holiday season, consider adding a walk into your daily routine to help maintain your energy, clear your mind, and support your long-term health.
