‘My blood pressure in the morning usually is 130/90 mmHg, but at night it is elevated..’
Expert Dr Saraf warns against nocturnal hypertension, a condition where blood pressure remains high at night. This can be caused by stress, poor sleep, or lifestyle habits. Monitoring and a 24-hour ambulatory test are recommended, as sustained nighttime hypertension increases cardiovascular risk. Medical attention is necessary for readings above 160/100 mmHg.
