You are just 25years..
Just with one or two checkup, we cannot term a person hypertensive..
blood pressure should be checked properly as follow,
Three times a day,
In both arms,
Three posture say( sitting posture, lying down, standing posture)
And three different days..
And the average should be calculated.
Only then we can come to the proper conclusion.

You might have White coat hypertension. You keep on checking occasionally or else use a digital bp machine and check for yourself when you are relaxed at home. If BP records high even during that time then you might have HTN.
