High blood pressure (HBP) is a serious condition that can lead to coronary heart disease, heart failure, stroke, kidney failure, and other health problems.

"Blood pressure" is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood. If this pressure rises and stays high over time, it can damage the body in many ways.
Overview

About 1 in 3 adults in the United States has HBP. HBP itself usually has no symptoms. You can have it for years without knowing it. During this time, though, it can damage the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and other parts of your body.

This is why knowing your blood pressure numbers is important, even when you're feeling fine. If your blood pressure is normal, you can work with your health care team to keep it that way. If your blood pressure is too high, you need treatment to prevent damage to your body's organs.
Blood Pressure Numbers

Blood pressure numbers include systolic (sis-TOL-ik) and diastolic (di-a-STOL-ik) pressures. Systolic blood pressure is the pressure when the heart beats while pumping blood. Diastolic blood pressure is the pressure when the heart is at rest between beats.

You will most often see blood pressure numbers written with the systolic number above or before the diastolic, such as 120/80 mmHg. (The mmHg is millimeters of mercury鈥攖he units used to measure blood pressure.)

The table below shows normal numbers for adults. It also shows which numbers put you at greater risk for health problems. Blood pressure tends to goes up and down, even in people who have normal blood pressure. If your numbers stay above normal most of the time, you're at risk.

um..i don't think so...you have to check your blood pressure several times to make sure that u're having high blood pressure...i suggest you to check with doctor about this...sometimes nervousness will cause your BP to rise and taking caffeine also can increase your BP..so better check again with the doctor...

Yes. Normal blood pressure is 110/70. Try avoiding foods that raise blood pressure (salty foods) and eating foods that lower blood pressure (those high in potassium).

Eh its border line hypertension you may want to cut back on the salt and exercise more. Now if it gets any higher you may definitely want to go see a doctor before its too late.

Yes, go see your medical doctor immediately before you experience a heart attack.

The second number is very high.

Yes, normal range should be 120/80 or below, see a doctor!

120/80 is normal with a resting heart rate of 65.
