Explanation:

Hypertensive patients are generally advised to monitor their blood - pressure daily for better management and early detection of fluctuations. Taking medication only when they feel pressure rising is incorrect as it should be taken regularly as prescribed. Limiting exercise is wrong as appropriate exercise is beneficial for blood - pressure control. Monitoring once a week is not frequent enough for proper management.
