I think your dad is not doing physical exercise, is his job sedentary in nature? does he have symptoms like faintness or giddiness or he gets irritated very soon,does he takes sleeping pills. There are lots of reasons for the above reading. If your dad is feeling fine with this BP, leave him alone or you can consult a cardiologist for further evaluation.
