What is the normal level of high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

My mother-in-law has high blood pressure, but I don't know how serious her condition is. Could you please tell me what is considered normal blood pressure?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your description, it seems that your mother-in-law suffers from hypertension. This indicates that her blood pressure is below 140/90 mmHg, while the normal value should be higher than this. I am not sure about her specific blood pressure readings. Long-term high blood pressure can lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. It is recommended to visit the cardiology department of the hospital for follow-up, improve blood pressure monitoring, use antihypertensive medication under the guidance of a doctor, and regularly check blood pressure to keep it under control.
