normal range of blood pressure in male - #20594
I am really confused about something and hoping someone can help. Recently, I went to my doc for a check-up, and they told me my blood pressure was 145/95. Honestly, I freaked out a little. I mean, I always thought my blood pressure was in the normal range of blood pressure in male adults, but I guess I was wrong? I didn’t feel any symptoms, just a few headaches, but I thought it was because of too much screen time or something. I'm 35 and trying to live a healthy life—exercise, eat better, but now I'm questioning everything. A friend mentioned that maybe the normal range of blood pressure in male individuals is actually lower than I thought. What is that normal range of blood pressure in male adults, actually? I've read varying things online, and it just adds to my stress. Should I be worried about this reading? I mean, if this is out of the normal range of blood pressure in male patients, what can I do? Should I monitor it more closely? Also, could it just be an off day, or is it serious? Any advice would be super helpful, just trying to make sense of all this!
