What Is the Normal Blood Pressure for Your Age?

Cardiovascular problems are affecting a great number of people. Hypertension or high pressure is one of the most common health problems, but it should never be taken lightly.

However, if untreated, this disease can seriously harm your health, and eventually lead to heart attack and heart failure.

In most cases, people suffer from this issue, without ever even knowing. However, some people can experience headaches, dizziness, vomiting, blurry vision, short breaths, nausea, and severe anxiety.

If you do not treat hypertension on time, the patient may experience health issues including memory loss, heart attack, heart issues, atherosclerosis, kidney damage, and even stroke.

Of course, variations for target blood pressures can be altered due to genes, age, gender, etc.

Here is the normal blood pressure for your age:

• To 20 years old – 123/76
