Patient's question:
My dad went to the community for a health check-up today. The doctor said she has high blood pressure. Hello, what is the normal range for the highest blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
The normal blood pressure range for a healthy person is systolic blood pressure below 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure below 90 mmHg. The optimal normal blood pressure for most people is around 120/80 mmHg. If the systolic blood pressure is greater than or equal to 140 mmHg or the diastolic blood pressure is greater than or equal to 90 mmHg, it is diagnosed as hypertension. If diagnosed with hypertension, it is necessary to persist in exercising, adjust the diet, persist in taking antihypertensive drugs, monitor blood pressure data irregularly to track changes, and control blood pressure within the normal range.
