My wife BP says 220 while checking at an hospital. She is very normal and can able to maintain herself with out any difficulty. Then we came out and check the BP in 10 minutes time and it says it is 160/110. I am confused please explain what is the reality.

Ans: A Systolic BP of 220 mmhg need attention. However, single reading is not immediate concern and should have been repeated after 5 min and in both arms.
A BP of 160/110 also require treatment.

The high BP does not always results in symptoms but it can result in damage of various organs such as eyes, kidney, heart and vascular system. People may develop various complications.

Therefore, you are advised to get her started on treatment and bring the BP in normal range. Also, please do BP charting atleast twice in a day and share with physician.
