The saying that “measuring blood pressure in the morning is accurate, but not in the afternoon” is inappropriate. Because the blood pressure of normal people in a day is constantly fluctuating, most people’s blood pressure is generally in the early morning 2 ~ 3 when the lowest, 6 ~ 10 a.m. and p.m. 4 ~ 8 when the peak of high blood pressure can occur, so it can not be said that a certain period of time to measure blood pressure is not allowed.
In short, when measuring blood pressure, the patient should be in a quiet and awake state, try not to talk and move, and pay attention to smooth breathing. A full meal, emotional excitement, strenuous exercise, too low or too high ambient temperature will make the blood pressure measurement inaccurate and unable to reflect the real condition of the body.
If you find that your blood pressure measurement is abnormal, you should consult a doctor for a clear diagnosis and standardized treatment under the doctor’s guidance.
