Low blood pressure is a reading below 90/60 mm Hg. It can happen either as a condition on its own or as a symptom of a wide range of conditions. The cause also affects your prognosis. It may not cause symptoms. But when it does, you may need medical attention.
Hypotension can affect people of any age and background, depending on why it happens. However, it’s more likely to cause symptoms in people over 50 (especially orthostatic hypotension). It can also happen (with no symptoms) to people who are very physically active, which is more common in younger people.
