High Blood pressure
I got my BP checked after a walk and it came out to be 160 by 90.
Since my parents are having BP I keep getting it checked.
I read somewhere that we need to monitor bp daily and check if high BP continues. Bcoz of corona fear I don't want to go to the clinic everyday to get it monitored.
Pls advise.

After any exercise a person's blood pressure and pulse rate is likely to raise. Always measure blood pressure in morning after a good night's sleep to know the exact reading.

Tracking ur BP is a good idea...
But generally young onset of high BP is less common...
So have a BP apparatus at home and monitor urself early in the morning...review after results
