Symptoms of renovascular hypertension include:
- High blood pressure at a young age
- High blood pressure that suddenly gets worse or is difficult to control
- Kidneys that are not working well, which often occurs suddenly
- Narrowing of other arteries in the body, such as to the legs, the brain, the eyes and elsewhere
