POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. A blood pressure reading of 130/90 mmHg is considered to be on the higher end of normal and falls into the "elevated" category. However, whether you need to start medication depends on your overall health, lifestyle, and any other risk factors (like family history, age, or presence of other conditions like diabetes or heart disease).
In many cases, lifestyle changes such as improving your diet, exercising regularly, reducing stress, and avoiding excess salt can help manage blood pressure without medication. It's important to monitor your blood pressure regularly, and you should consult your doctor for a proper evaluation to determine if you need medication or if lifestyle adjustments alone are sufficient to control it.
