Hello doctor! I am 64 years old, blood pressure of the day at 3 times, 130/80 mmHg in the morning, 119/75 mmHg in the afternoon, 117/65 mmHg in the afternoon. Can a doctor assess my blood pressure by measuring results during the day, good or bad? Thank you.

Hello sir! Normal blood pressure of a healthy person is less than 140/90 mmHg, if blood pressure is 140/90 mmHg it is called hypertension.
Idiopathic hypertension accounts for about 95% of cases and is a chronic disease requiring long-term treatment. Treatment aims to bring blood pressure values back to normal and protect target organs, avoiding damage caused by high blood pressure.
Uncle is 64 years old, blood pressure of the day at 3 times in the morning is 130/80 mmHg, at noon is 119/75 mmHg, and in the afternoon is 117/65 mmHg. That's completely within normal limits. However, you also need to have a reasonable diet, lifestyle, exercise and regular health check-ups and blood pressure monitoring.
Hopefully, with the blood pressure assessment through the measurement results of the day above, it has helped you better understand your health status.
