A member asked:

Does cold winter season weather increase blood pressure?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes and no: When you're cold, it's normal for BP to rise but not just because it's winter. If you dress comfortably, your BP will remain in it's usual range (which is, hopefully, well controlled).

Dr Ferdowsi and another doctor agreed
