What Should Be The Normal Value For Blood Pressure?
my blood pressure is always 110/72 i am 5'7" tall and i weigh around 148. i am in the Marine Corps. i have a great diet and i dont not drink caffinated beverages. Everytime i have my vitals taken my resting heart rate is anywhere from 107-130. should i be worried about this?
Hello, Your blood pressure is fine but heart rate is certainly on a higher side. I guess you take your heart rate after a rest of 5-10 min, if not please do it like that. You should also get ECG, hemoglobin and thyroid test done as these are the common causes of high heart rate. Overall doesn't look like a matter of worry. Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
