Is This Low Of Blood Pressure Unhealthy?

396545385 I'm only 16, 5'4 130 pounds and I understand that average blood pressure should be around 120/80? Well mine was 83/70. I'm pretty sure that's reaally low. But could it hurt my body? I don't really understand what could happen. Please only answer with serious help.

  1. Gary - If you don't get dizzy when you stand up quickly you're probably OK. Constant low pressure is called Hypo-tension, can be caused by dehydration, diet pills,or lack of folic acid. serious problems are diabetes or heart problem. Suggest more fluids and recheck pressure over the week if no change suggest seeing Doc. just in case,
