Hi lybrate-user, As per your post your BP is in high normal range. One or two readings are not diagnostic. So don't worry. If you have any symptoms pls. Be alert. By just turning towards healthy lifestyle, you can maintain the BP. Start regular walking, meditation& take proper sleep.

Dear lybrateuser, - Your BP is on the higher side for your age - the normal range is 120/80 mm of Hg & below - have a salt restricted diet, avoid fried & fat containing foods -reduce weight by diet & exercise the BP will come down a few points - do regular exercise.

No it is high according to your age. Loose some and use low sodium salt, it will become normal.
