Is Blood Pressure Of 128/52 Considered Low?
Question: My blood pressure is 128/52 is that low?
Hi and thanks for the query,
Blood pressure has two components, diastolic and systolic, Your systolic reading (128) is within normal limits. It becomes an issue if it goes below 90. The diastolic is problematic since it is below 60, with a readung at 52. Fluctuations can be seen, A careful clinical review and monitoring from your doctor could be of immense help. Regards
