Question about my blood pressure?

Question about my blood pressure?

My blood pressure was 88/47

With a Pulse of 57.



I am 15 years old and a woman, if that helps any. I thought that a normal blood pressure range was 120/80 for an adult, and a healthy pulse is somewhere between 60-80. Is it different for someone my age?



What is wrong with me? Can I have a disease?



ALSO:

I took several readings, and they are all about the same.



The reason I became so questinoable about ym blood pressure is because my father who has hypertension was just in the hospital because he had high blood pressure. of 203/173. Which was given by the hospital.. and at home it was the same thing.



yes I am an athlete. I play fast pitch softball and do a lot of running.. prolly 1 mile or more a day.

Actually I believe that you have normal blood pressure for your age and being an athlete.  If you were elderly the doctors would be concerned that you had too low of a blood pressure. But I think that you are fine and that you have good blood pressure.
