Hello,
Blood pressure after increased activity can be high and is advisable to check your blood pressure when you are sitting relaxed for some time. If it still comes high more than 140/90 then consult again.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
