120-70, it will take some time for the med to become effective

110/70
this increase in the blood pressure is not the main cause
the internalist should examine your son carefully
it may be cardiac causes endocrinal or renal causes

I agree with the 110-120/70. Don’t get stuck on the age thing, your son is tall for his age and morbidly obese for his age. One of the causes of your son’s high BP could be his weight and that needs to be addressed immediately. As the doctor said above, there could be an endocrine problem and thus he should probably see an endocrinologist. Unless your little boy (and 13 seems awfully young to be having some drastic health issues such as this) wants a life full of medicines, doctor visits and health issues, he is going to need to get a little of this weight off as quickly as he can. I believe seeing an endocrinologist first to rule out any type of thyroid issues or growth hormone issues is paramount and then ask him to help work out a diet and exercise plan that your son can live with. As his weight comes down, his blood pressure will most likely normalize. Good luck to you both.

It’s slightly high. But that’s because your son is morbidly obese for his age. So it takes more pressure for the body to pump the blood around his body. If you try put him on a diet, chances are his blood pressure would slowly decrease.
