I am 25 years old today I checked my BP it was 138/90. After five minutes I checked again, it was 125/80. I am anxiety patient. Please tell me should I take medicine for that?

BP can vary with age, time, work and other factors. Anxiety is also one of the factors for high BP. The readings you have mentioned are not that raised and especially with BP coming to normal after 5 min, it indicates anxiety related rather than anything else, My suggestion is to stop checking BP so often and check it after one month if you are concerned.
