A member asked:
Just read article: why exercise is not good for the patients having hypertension?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on how high: I would need to see the article to fully comment, but overall, exercise is good for hypertension for the most part. If your blood pressure is systolically (which is the top number) is 180 or higher, you may want to avoid exercise until your blood pressure is better controlled.
