He is a young hypertensive most likely. He should meet an endocrinologist for a detailed evaluation. This is not to be ignored. Please meet Dr. Setu Gupta at karuna hospital. He is a fabulous endocrinologist.

You have to worry a lot.
Please ask him to consult a General Physician in your area for a physical examination. Time is against you. This consultation should be urgent.
Don't treat such a high BP in a 16 year old boy sitting at home and talking to friends. It should be a proper physical consultation.
