it kinda normal and it kinda isnt but when masterbating it could cause your blood presure to go up,cause headaches,cramps but from what i somewhat know its mostly cardio thats doing that to ya

Yes. How are you measuring your BP out of curiosity?

I am using a sphygmomanometer, not digital, and a stethoscope. But I do know how to measure blood pressure. And check with a digital after the manual.

Haha no worries, good on you for knowing how to use it manually, not many people do :) Just be wearing of the digital ones, unless you have a really good one they can give out really inaccurate readings, Paramedics hate the home ones as it sends people into panic all the time. All the best :)

YES we really do !!! No joke, I once met a woman who claimed she was going to explode because her blood pressure was too high, she used the sed auto BP moniter, I took the reading manually and it was normal, if anythig, slightly low !! ...( I'm not a para (but hope to be ) but I am a AFA,like yourself, in St. John Ambulance) :)

No worries, unless ur getting palpitations like few minutes after u finshed, its just ur heart pumping blood to keep up with ur rapid movements

Well what is your normal and what is it after?

Yes, it's normal. Your heart speeds up, pumping the blood faster, and the blood pressure goes up to get oxygen around more quickly. You're fine.
