Hello,

After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that blood pressure more than 149/90 needs a treatment and in your mother's case he physical activity will not be much which is another causative factor for hypertension.

It's recommended for you to decrease her diatery salt intake and monitor her BP while sitting relax for around 15-20 min. If her BP comes high again then she need to take anti-hypertensive drugs for proper management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap,
