Rise in systolic BP and back to normal

2021-09-22 07:04:43
We have been monitoring BP readings of my dad for quite some months now. The observation is that for say 26 days of the month, systolic BP is in 130s. However, suddenly for 3-4 days it tends to rise around 160s. Then again it gets back to normal after a few days. This monthly pattern is observed for past 3 months. What can be the reason of this? Is it something to worry about?
