[jewelsvtehome]

i have numbness in the top of my head, it doesn't hurt, but the hairs on my head seem to be
tingleing all the time. This has been going on for a few weeks now. Any idea what is going on?

hi dr

In what way can hypertension bring out the symptoms as experienced by jewelsvtehome? And how high a pressure will cause such a symptoms?


I have heard that hypertension cause headache and dizziness(not sure about numbness) at very high lvl and im concerned.

Hello jewelsvtehome,
Do you have any history of hypertension,brain injury? The pain could be due to  migraine,stress,trigeminal neuralgia.Do  you have associated nausea,vomiting,dizziness?You should monitor your blood pressure levels and get an assessment done from a neurologist.Take rest do not be anxious.OTC drugs like ibuprofen may give some relief.
