Many people have high blood pressure for years without knowing it. Uncontrolled high blood pressure may lead to hardening of arteries or 'atherosclerosis', a condition where the arteries thicken and lose elasticity due to deposits of calcium and plaque (cholesterol) on the arteries wall. The arteries harden and become brittle, interfering with the normal blood flow through the vessel. This, in turn may lead to a heart attack or stroke. In addition, blood vessels are more susceptible to rupture, critically affecting organs such as the heart and the brain.
