Brief Answer:
Multiple recording of Blood pressure each at an interval of 4 hours
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX
Welcome
I have gone through your query.
It is slightly on higher side for your age. But it is common if you are anxious or you have recorded post some exercise or even after a stress.
What I would suggest you is to record your blood pressure again. It would be better if you record it 3 to 4 times with an interval of 4 hours and also it is important that you get it checked when you are relaxed.
And even this reading are on higher side you need to see physician.
Hope this helps
Take care
