I Recently Got My BP Of 131/90, Is This Something I Should Be Concerned About ?

I recently got my blood pressure taken at my sister s house with an at home blood pressure monitor.. It says that my blood pressure is 131/90.. Is this something I should be concerned about? Will it go down soon? Do I need to go to the doctor to get it checked out real soon? Thanks!
