If left untreated, the probable lead for hypertension to an individual is kidney failure. It is because the blood pressure is associated with the kidneys because the nephrons of the kidneys are being supplied with the blood vessels dense network and also because of the blood that flows through it, when there is a presence of hypertension and left untreated, it could cause the kidney to weaken or harden—causing kidney failure.
