Your blood pressure is 160 and weight is 104. How should I manage the two?
160 is not a blood pressure. 160 over 90 would be. And if your top pressure measurement is 160, you should consult your doctor immediately! Normal is considered 120 over 80, and they would prefer to see 115 over 75. Anything over 150 is considered pretty dangerous. Weight is 104? In kilograms? If that is pounds, it is pretty low and not something to worry about. That will depend on your height.
What is normal blood pressure level for 64 years male?
There are two number involved in blood pressure--the ideal top number (systolic pressure) should be less than 120 and the ideal lower number should be (diastolic pressure) should be less than 80. So the ideal pressure should be 120/70 or so. You have "pre-hypertension" or borderline high blood pressure if the top number is consistently 120 to 139 or the bottom number reads 80 to 89. You have hypertension or high blood pressure if the top number is consistently 160 or over or the bottom number reads 100 or over. You have low blood pressure (not a good thing either!) if the top number reading is lower than 90 or the pressure is 25 mmHg lower than usual. I suggest you check out the links recommended by the National Library of Medicine website, MedlinePlus (http://medlineplus.gov). This site has links that explains high blood pressure http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/highbloodpressure.html. This site has links that explain low blood pressure http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/lowbloodpressure.html These ideal numbers remain "ideal" whatever your age or whether you are male or female. So, the normal "good" or "ideal" blood pressure should be around 120/70 or 120/80.

A systolic reading of 160 or higher and a diastolic of 100 or higher is considered to be Stage 2 High Blood Pressure. Higher numbers than those are considered to be a crisis and can be life threatening.

What is a normal bloodpressure?
Hypertension- high blood pressure. (Hypotension- low blood pressure) High blood pressure is the pressure that is placed in your arteries when the heart pumps your blood. High blood pressure is an above average pressure that could eventually lead to things like strokes or heart attacks. Blood pressure is broke down by systolic and diastolic. Systolic readings are normally the higher of the two pressures when getting your blood pressure taken. If your systolic is lower than your diastolic then you probably aren't reading this and maybe in the hospital or even dead. Diastolic is the pressure left over in the arterie after the heart refills for another pump. Giving you a lower reading. Normal blood pressure should range around 140/80. If it is higher than that it would be a good idea to start an exercise program and diet.
