What Are The Risks Involved If High Blood Pressure Patient Takes A Roller Coaster Ride ?
What are the risks of going to on a roller coaster if you have high blood pressure? I m 24 years old male and I never had any health problems before and about a year ago I think I saw a doctor at the college I went to because I hurt my shoulder & while they were during the regular checkup things they told me that I had HBP & I don t know if I still have it and I will be going to Six Flags this Thursday, So I just wanted to know what should I do?
hi
welcome to healthcaremagic forum
first you have to check your bp now.if it is normal then you can go for it .othervise you have to consult a physician to control it.
Hey Anonymous, First of all for your age and for one Blood Pressure reading we cannot diagnose that your Hypertensive(high BP). Most of the time when you go to doctors office your BP will become more its called White coat Hypertension which is nothing to worry. In your case it could also be for stress since you had hurt your shoulder. My advise to you is go enjoy six flag rides!!!
Please lemme know if you have any further questions or concerns.
Thanks for choosing health care magic.
