Patient's question:
Doctor, because I've been feeling dizzy for the past few days, I had my blood pressure checked. I don't know what the normal blood pressure values are, so I'd like to ask you: I'm 43 years old, my systolic blood pressure is 89, and my diastolic blood pressure is 137. Is this considered high blood pressure? If so, do I need to take blood pressure medication?Doctor's answer:
I always feel dizzy again. I measured my blood pressure and it was 89/137 on the ventilator. This blood pressure hasn't dropped below the normal range, but it has a relatively critical point. It is recommended to measure it for several consecutive days. If the average blood pressure value decreases, then it indicates high blood pressure. If not, it is recommended to prevent it by stabilizing your daily unhealthy lifestyle and not taking medication. Adjust your physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
