I'm 28 and have been dealing with blood pressure readings around 15090. Lately, I've noticed a bit of heart pressure and irritation in my eyes. High blood pressure runs in my family; both my grandmother and father have it. I'm starting to get worried. Do you think I should be concerned?

Your blood pressure reading of 15090 is considered high and may require medical attention. Given your family history of high blood pressure, it is important to monitor and manage your blood pressure to reduce the risk of complications. To help lower your blood pressure, you can consider taking medication such as Losartan (50mg) once daily. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and stress management techniques can also be beneficial in managing high blood pressure. For the pressure on the heart and eye irritation, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan.

Could you let me know which kind of doctor I should see about this?
