ing in a washing machine will cause air leakage. Also, be careful not to get water into the air hose.

For proper measurement of blood pressure

Take a deep breath five or six time and then relax before measuring blood pressure. If you are tense when taking the measurement, you will not get a valid reading.

Blood pressure will be elevated when you are in a worri- some or irritated state, suffering from lack of sleep or constipation, or after exercise or a meal.
