I have a 17 year old son who is 6′6 he weighs 205lbs. Hes very athletic, plays basketball for his high school. In this area that means 11 out of 12 months of practice or games. His blood pressure is running 140/90 at rest and 145/110 after practice. His doctor doesnt seem concerned but that seems high especially for someone in peak physical condition.

      I would suggest you go to a different doctor for a second opinion

      The peak of high blood pressure would get second opinion for sure.
