It depends what is causing it for a start. Are you overweight? Do you eat a healthy well balanced diet? Do you exercise? How high is it?
Unless you address these basic issues i personally don't think there is a quick fix. But maybe others know better.
Do you consume alot of normal table salt ? If the answer is yes. One think you could do is change that to Seasalt like celtic or redmonds.

That is a symptom of low stomach acid and/or intestinal flora. Bitters, B vitamins, and zinc for the stomach acid. Kefir or other cultured foods and prebiotics for the flora.

There are various reasons for high blood pressure. What will work best will depend on the cause of the high blood pressure. For example the pain from your injury can raise blood pressure. So will the ibuprofen (Advil) you are taking, which constricts blood vessels. If you are diabetic insulin can also raise your blood pressure. Calcium raises blood pressure by contracting blood vessels, etc. Here are a few options:
Magnesium malate or citrate are natural calcium channel blockers and therefore relax blood vessels lowering blood pressure.
Sterols relax blood vessels. Yucca root is the highest herbal sterol source. Jiaogulan is also sterol rich and also helps to act as a beta blocker.
Ashwagandha acts as a natural ACE inhibitor and beta blocker.
Coleus forskohlii has the same effects as cardiac glycosides (lowers blood pressure, and slows and strengthens heart contractions).
Kudzu and bamboo both relax blood vessels.
Potassium is a natural diuretic and lowers blood pressure by displacing sodium and eliminating excess water.

This is a reply to # 1,465,734This info is perfect timing for me, Hv. Due to a snafu by the pharmacy, my prescript expired [by ONE day] before I got into the pharmacy to refill my last 30 bp pills. Can't get back to the doc for a month, SO I'll be totally off the bp pills, atenolol, for a month. Then I thought this might be a blessing in disguise! My bp was never THAT high anyhow. It just happened that ONE DAY when I went to the doc a few years back, when they took the bp, the lower number hit 100 for some reason and they flipped out and next thing ya know I'm on bp pills. I stayed on them mainly because my heart would beat fast sometimes and it helped that. Maybe I can STAY OFF the atenolol!!
Well, that was three days ago. I'm taking my bp every morning to see what happens. Was on the lowest dose of atenolol, 25mg. I have had several 'episodes' where my heart beat faster when I was exerting myself [I'm not talking about jogging or anything, just taking care of my farm and garden and such], BUT it went down to normal again without any drugs! Plus I'm taking lots of good stuff like the yucca, ashwagandha, magnesium, etc. so this will be a good experiment!
I think my heart gets going because I'm just too darn fat and also because my low adrenals make keep me in 'stress mode' most of the time.....irritable, edgy, frustrated, etc. Takes everything in me to keep it in check. But I digress. Good info, Hv, as always!

This is a real pet peeve of mine with doctors. They are so quick to prescribe based on one abnormally reading whether it be high cholesterol, high blood pressure or whatever. There are so many things that can cause a TEMPORARY rise in these readings. Coffee for one. Yet they tell people that they have to fast for the blood test, but they can have coffee before the test. Well this raises blood pressure, cholesterol, cortisol,....... Temporary stress or pain can also raise these levels. This is why they are ALWAYS supposed to get multiple readings to make sure something is chronically high before prescribing. But too often then whip out their prescription pads either out of ignorance or out of incentives. Such as the 10,000 frequent flier points the drug companies give doctors for each patient they put on Inderal. With other drugs they can be given trips, TVs, etc. as incentives by the drug companies to prescribe their drugs. Then there is also the problem with doctors who are invested in to certain drugs. All of a sudden it seems that this is the drug the doctor thinks everyone needs.
And there is “white coat syndrome” where people with normal blood pressure will develop a temporary high blood pressure when they go to the doctor due to anxiousness. I have a really great example of this that happened to a friend of mine, leading to a stroke, that I will have to post.

This is a reply to # 1,466,051Its interesting that you should mention this Hv, I have been doing a little experimenting with this. I have a blood pressure monitor, I have taken my blood pressure after exercise, eating or drinking and at different times during the day. It amazes me the difference in the readings. In the morning the reading can be very low, after work at 11am it can be quite high. I have even taken a reading , then conciously focused of lowering heart rate and blood pressure, taken another reading directly after the first, and seen a marked drop in the numbers, just by thinking about it.
So one reading, taken in a doctors surgery, is a very inaccurate way of diagnosing a blood pressure problem, and prescribing drugs based on this is stupid and potentially very dangerous.
BTW, I have found that Celery juice can lower blood pressure very quickly, Celery seeds also.

The instructions with my BP monitor, actually tells you not to drink coffee, at least not for an hour before taking a reading. In fact they say don't eat or drink anything and relax for 15 minutes before taking it. They advise to take same time of day.
My eldery parents are obsessed with taking their bp. They take it all the time, and record it in a little book. I get a bit cross with them, and tell them not to take it so often, as it only worries them if it is high.- Re: what is the quickest way to cont... spudlydoo

This is a reply to # 1,466,445Yep, my monitor instructions say the same thing, I took my bp at odd times and a lot during a week long experiment to see how much bp fluctuates during a day. The doctor I was seeing at the time (not any more) told me that I had high bp and wanted to put me on captopril to treat it. I thought he had rocks in his head :), so I decided to see if I actually did have high bp or if it was high when he took the readings in his office because he made me so P'd off.
Turns out my bp is perfectly normal, and if I had taken his word for it I would be taking an unnecessary drug for a condition I did not have.

Exactly!!!
By the way, you will also find that the blood pressure in your left arm is higher than in the right. This is because the blood exits the heart on that side.
There are a few other problems with taking blood pressure. Since blood pressure is generally taken with a stethoscope, the reading will actually vary according to the person's hearing that is taking the blood pressure. And I used to train medical personnel how to take blood pressures properly. I was forever getting on people about putting their thumb on the stethoscope during the readings. This is a definite no-no!!! The thumb has a pulse that can be picked up by the stethoscope and can give false readings.
