Hello I am a 18 year boy.Since 6 months ago i have been experiencing high arterial blood pressure.This has caused me a feeling of tension on the top of the scalp,neck pain and dizziness.I have done an EKG,blood analysis and various scans but everything for the doctors was normal.What else should i do because this feeling is not good.

It sounds to me like you should be on a medication, such as a beta blocker, to lower your blood pressure.  From what you posted, I assume your doctor did not prescribe any medication.

at your age, it's probably hormonal - which might also be directly causing those feelings/symptoms
