Hello,

Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms are related to White Coat Syndrome. You should know that these changes in blood pressure values are caused by the anxiety and fear when consulting with a doctor or a dentist.

There is no need for any treatment, as these blood pressure fluctuations are not harmful. So, just relax and don't worry about it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
