Patient's question:
A child is measuring blood pressure. How much blood pressure is normal for a child?Doctor's answer:
If you are a child or teenager, your blood pressure should be lower than that of a normal adult. For children aged 7 to 12, the systolic pressure should be between 60 to 75 mmHg, and the diastolic pressure should be between 90 to 110 mmHg, gradually approaching adult blood pressure levels. You can check your child's blood pressure. If it is too low or too high, or if it is slightly lower without any adverse reactions, it is normal. However, both low and high blood pressure are harmful to the body. In daily life, pay attention to maintaining a regular lifestyle for your child.
