My Bp gets to a higher side when I go emotionally disturbed.
It gives me constant chest pain also during the fluctuations.
Please suggest what should I do.

Question

Please understand that It is pretty normal for BP to rise in response to anger, stress, anxiety, fear, excitement etc and a rise in BP during such situations is not abnormal. In fact one of the most important part of keeping BP controlled is managing stress and anxiety. Your chest pain may also be a psychological response to your stress. But to re-assure yourself get a ecg, TMT and echo done, if they are normal and you only experience BP rise during stress situations, then please consult a psychiatrist for anxiety and emotional counselling and medical treatment and also do some meditation and yoga. Begin daily exercise for 30-40 mins, avoid smoking, alcohol and stimulants like caffeine and eat a healthy diet.
