Check your blood pressure by your self at home


You can check your blood pressure by yourself at home. For those of you who did not get to go to a clinic or doctor to check their blood pressure, of course it will help to control your blood pressure. 

If you are diagnosed with hypertension or high blood pressure, and ask your doctor to do blood pressure checks every day, it would be quite a hassle if you have to go to the clinic every day to check blood pressure. It would be better if you could check your blood pressure at home.

Before the examination, you need to know tips before checking blood pressure as reported Healthmeup.

1. You may need a quite relaxing place to check your blood pressure.

2. Make sure your bladder is empty.

3. Roll up sleeves if necessary.

4. Rest for five to 10 minutes. Your arms should rest comfortably so that your heart relaxes. Sit upright with your back against the chair and the legs extended. Rest your arm on a table with your palm facing up.

5. Start doing the examination with high blood pressure tool you have. This time also a lot of automated blood pressure devices that will calculate your pressure without the need to manually calculate the pulse.
