Hello, I am working professional. Recently I joined a gym and there physician checked my BP and told me it's 170/110. Consult doctor it's too much. He told me it's because of my work. I wanted to know does smoking and consuming Alcohal also responsible for this? Or is it the major reason of High BP? Or it's just for work stress. Do I need to consult. Kindly suggest,
