Blood Pressure refers to the pressure applied by the blood on the blood vessels as it circulates through the body. High blood pressure occurs when the walls of the blood vessels, mainly the bigger arteries, start to become less flexible and stiffen up causing more pressure to be exerted. In other terms, if your blood pressure goes above 140 mm Hg and below 90 mm Hg, you are said to have high blood pressure.
