How do you treat prehypertension?
Lifestyle changes are always beneficial: stop smoking, maintain a healthy weight, lower sodium intake, exercise, etc. Medication may be considered if there are other risk factors involved for heart disease. Also may be considered if lifestyle changes have not worked, or there are other serious health problems to consider. The length and severity of the condition also factors into the equasion. The patient's feelings about medication and willingness to comply with a regime also have to be considered. Unfortunately, we know that prehypertention puts us at risk for serious health consequences, and although lifestyle changes will always be a benefit, medication is something that should be considered only after weighing the risk/benefit ratio with a doctor.

No, that should not be a concern at all. First off, you have to note that blood pressure rises during any exertion, so if you had been moving around, even walking up a few flights of stairs, for example, before you had your blood pressure taken, it can affect your BP reading significantly. 'Normal' BP for an adult is considered 115/75, although some prefer 120/80. Anything below 90/60 is considered hypotension. 90-119/60-80 is normal 120-139/80-89 is Prehypertension* 140-159/90-99 is Stage 1 hypertension Anything over 160/100 is Stage 2 hypertension *In the UK, anything up to 140/90 is considered 'normal' Basically, your systolic pressure falls under 'prehypertension', while your diastolic pressure clearly falls within the normal range. Concerning your blood pressure, you are a healthy adult male.
