What causes hypertension headaches?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

High blood pressure can cause you to have a headache, and this kind of headache signals an emergency. This occurs when your blood pressure becomes dangerously high. A hypertension headache will usually occur on both sides of your head and is typically worse with any activity.

My mom has this needle-like pain in her left hand index finger and it's moving up to her chest. It happens every 10 minutes, and it's really sharp pain both in the finger and her chest. She's also complaining about pain in her neck and legs. Could this be something serious, or should we get it checked out?

.I would suggest you to get an ecg done and rule out the cardiac causes and also measure blood pressure and sugars to see if there is any fluctuations...It might be neuropathy too
