Hi, My husband is having diabetes Fbs 202& PP 298. He is having cough and cold in last 3 days. Today I measured his BP. It was 148/98. Previously he is not having BP. Does the BP increased due to cough?

Coughing can cause a short lived, instantaneous rise in one's blood pressure but is unlikely to cause longstanding elevations in blood pressure. ... As such, immediately during a cough, the blood pressure measurements can become extremely elevated.
