Question: Hi Dr,my blood preasure is 126/77,my heart rate is 112 should I seek medical help now?
Brief Answer:
This is fine, you can wait if you are not having symptoms
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Your blood pressure is absolutely normal. Pulse rate is on a higher side, but it's not an emergency. Pulse rate may be high due to physical activities, anxiety, stress or if you are having any fever, pain etc. and it's common to have this much heart rate.
Please be seated and relax for 10-15 min and recheck your pulse rate, if it goes below 100 then no need to visit on emergency basis you are not having any symptoms at this moment.
Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
Regards
