Is a blood pressure of 113 over 57 good and what do those numbers mean?

the doctor always takes my blood pressure but i never know what it means.Is a blood pressure of 113 over 57 good and what do those numbers mean?
Your blood pressure is actually much better than normal which is 120/80. Below 90/60 could be low blood pressure.





Your diastolic pressure at 57 is a bit on the low side but as long as you are feeling fine you should be OK. One of the common symptoms of low blood pressure is feeling faint and sometimes actually fainting.





Your systolic pressure at 113 is fine.





Over 140/90 needs treatment as it is too high and below 90/60 might need treatment if it is too low.Is a blood pressure of 113 over 57 good and what do those numbers mean?
it is a little lower but fine





90/60 is very low!





120/80 is normal





140/90 is high
113 is pretty normal, but the 57 is a little bit low. normal is about 120/80, maybe a little higher or a little lower.





The top number, which is called the systolic pressure, shows the pressure in your arteries when your heart is forcing blood through them. The bottom number, called the diastolic pressure, shows the pressure in your arteries when your heart relaxes. The top number can be anywhere from 90 to 240 and the bottom number can be anywhere from 60 to 140. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury, which is written down as: mmHg
The number 113 means your systolic pressure which represents the pressure generated when the heart contracts, while the 57 is diastolic meaning the blood pressure when the heart is relaxed.


Your systolic pressure is good, and the 57 is close to a normal blood pressure. It is a little low and puts you in the hypotension stage. That means you need to either stop smoking, oversleeping, not so much caffeine, and eat less salts. You are probably in great health, but be careful not to get too much lower then the 57. If you do it can cause dizziness and might make you feel weak and tired.
