Your heart pumps blood through tubes called your arteries and veins. This causes pressure inside of these tubes, which is called blood pressure. Checking your blood pressure tells you how hard your heart is working to pump your blood. Blood pressure that is too high hypertension means your heart is working too hard to pump your blood. This can harm your body, including your kidneys. Your kidneys are made of tiny blood vessels that help clean your blood. When you have high blood pressure, the blood flows through these blood vessels with a lot of force.
This can harm these blood vessels and cause kidney disease. However, high blood pressure can also be a symptom of kidney disease.
Kidneys help your body control your blood pressure. When high blood pressure damages your kidneys, they cannot control your blood pressure very well. You will not be able to feel if high blood pressure has hurt your kidneys. The only way to know is to be tested.
Learn more about the tests for kidney disease. It can take many years for high blood pressure to damage your kidneys. You can take steps to control your blood pressure and prevent kidney disease. If you already have kidney disease, controlling your blood pressure can help prevent more damage to your kidneys. Your doctor may ask you to check your blood pressure at home with a digital blood pressure monitor. Many pharmacies and grocery stores have in-store monitors that you can use for free.
You can also get a monitor from your local drug store, hospital, clinic or online. Written by American Heart Association editorial staff and reviewed by science and medicine advisers. See our editorial policies and staff.
High Blood Pressure. Understanding Blood Pressure Readings. Blood Pressure Toolkit. Can HBP cause kidney failure? How your kidneys work Your kidneys are a pair of regulatory organs located on either side of your back. Their main function is to act as a filter system that removes waste products and excess fluid from the body. Over time, high blood pressure harms renal blood vessels The nephrons in the kidneys are supplied with a dense network of blood vessels, and high volumes of blood flow through them.
