blood pressure normal range male - #14385
I am a bit confused about what constitutes the blood pressure normal range male because I just had my checkup and my readings were kinda all over the place. Like, one moment it was 135/85, and then it suddenly spiked to 150/95 when I was waiting in the doc's office, and she said that’s kinda high. My dad has high blood pressure, and I know that means I should be cautious, right? I’m 38, not overweight, but I do have a pretty stressful job and sometimes I catch myself not eating well. What even is the blood pressure normal range male supposed to be? I’ve seen different numbers online, and now I’m all mixed up. Should I be worried about those readings? I thought anxiety could mess with blood pressure too, like maybe my readings were higher just cause I was nervous about the appointment? Does that even make sense? Should I be using a home monitor to keep track of this? I just feel like I need some sorta guidance on how to stay within the blood pressure normal range male thing because now I'm kinda freaked out about it. Any tips or advice for managing blood pressure or lifestyle changes that could help? Would love to hear from other guys going through this too.
