A member asked:

Hi...my daughter is 14years old. how much is her blood pressure suppose to be? is 130/83 too high or normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Numbers are numbers: But healthy young teens have blood pressure readings around 110/60. Her pediatrician can take a look at the numbers (because numbers don't have meaning without the whole story). Maybe a video visit will suffice, for a review of the situation. First, parents should record the blood pressure numbers 3 times a day for 1 week (morning, bedtime, and any time in between). Don't miss annual check-ups.
