Brief Answer:
Visit your doctor if your BP is persistently high.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
I understand from your description that your high BP(Systolic) is 160mmhg. It depends on the time you have measured. Usually after any work or stress the BP shoots up. I would advise you take rest for atleast half an hour and recheck your BP. If BP value persists to be high, I will insist you see a doctor to evaluate and decide about antihypertensive measures.
Hope this answers your query. If any further clarifications, will be happy to help you.
Regards.
