Hello,
With the question “How to treat grade 3 high blood pressure? , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
By definition, the average blood pressure of an adult is within the following limits:
90 mmHg less than or equal to the maximum blood pressure less than or equal to 140 mmHg. 60 mmHg less than or equal to the diastolic blood pressure less than or equal to 90 mmHg. Blood pressure is said to be high when the systolic blood pressure is greater than 140 mmHg or the diastolic pressure is less than 90 mmHg. Thus, hypertension can only increase systolic blood pressure or only minimally increase blood pressure or/and increase both. The only way to know if your blood pressure is going up or down is to measure your blood pressure and monitor it.
