Hi,

You might be having stress related hypertension. Stress can lead to increase in BP. You need to eat and drink sensibly, stop smoking in case you do, do non-competitive exercises like aerobics, and get enough rest. You need to reduce the causes of stress. Visit your doctor for your complete evaluation.

Wish you good health.

Hello,
Young men under the age of 35 years are very less likely to have high blood pressure. If hypertension happens in young, then a secondary cause of hypertension should always be suspected like renal artery stenosis. Try to limit salt intake, sugars, caffeine and alcohol and eat a healthy diet consisting more of fruits and vegetables. You should respond to weight management and other lifestyle changes but if the symptoms persist then get an evaluation done from a physician.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
