Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here...Hi my name is Daniel and Ive just found out yesterday that my Blood preassure level has  increased to 155/90. Is this an alarming rate? My BP was normal until I underwent a nasal surgery in December 2010.  What should I do now?
Hi Daniel I understand your concerns would like to tell BP more than 140/90 comes under High BP. Monitor Your BP for some days if it stays more than 140/90 then it needs to be managed. First step to manage hypertension is Lifestyle Modification for 3 months that include weight loss, low salt diet, smoke/alcohol cessation and daily aerobic exercise of 30 min. If even after this your BP stays more than 140/90 then it will require medication. Hope this henpecking Regards
