I’ve never understood why doctors tell us to take our blood pressures after sitting down for a little while. Like…wouldn’t it be better to know what your BP is when you’re walking around since it changes quite a bit?
Isn’t it bad if a BP is really high at any point, even while walking?
In: Biology
It’s for resting blood pressure because that will pretty much always be consistent. Excercise can cause readings all over the place depending on how much you’re exerting yourself.
