I read in the papers today - world kidney day - that not looking after your blood pressure can damage the kidneys.

How does this work?

Why does high blood pressure harm your kidneys. My friend developed kidney problems due to taking blood pressure treatment tablets - so which is worse, taking blood pressure treatment or simply having high blood pressure.

I know that diabetic people get kidney disease but is it really true that just because I have high blood pressure I should worry about kidney problems too?

Getting confused by all of this ….

Bob
