Question : My wife has a blood pressure reading of 90/55 always. What should be done. She is normal and active. Is it ok

Answered by Dr. Vaddadi Suresh (37 minutes later)

Brief Answer: NOTHING TO WORRY Detailed Answer: Hi, Low blood pressure is commonly seen in many women and is totally harmless as long as she has no symptoms. You can ask her to increase salt intake daily for 2 months and see the difference. Ask her to take buttermilk daily with 1 spoon of salt, and that will normalize her blood pressure. HOPE THIS HELPS.
