I had my blood pressure taken on 16 June at my local hospital before and after a facet joint injection. THe bedfore reading was 143/119 and the after reading was 140/103. It was taken again by my GP yesterday and it was 120/90. Are all the reading high?
Hello, After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that during a painful time blood pressure can rise and is not a major concern if you are hypertensive already. If your BP stays under 140/90 then you need not worry, and can continue with your day-to-day life. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
