Teenage blood pressure?!
Question: Teenage blood pressure.?
Hi I'm 16 years old (female). I tried to give blood the other day, and I was told that my blood pressure was too high. It was 112/70. Evidently... that's bad... I'm pretty sure that stress + illnesss played a large roll, because I gave blood last year....
So, my question is, What is the normal blood pressure for teens.?.?
