Does Having A High Heart Rate Cause High Blood Pressure?
hi I have a pinched nerve in my lower back which is makin my left side of my left foot numb & a constant pain going down my left leg..will that make my heart rate go up? Plus I nostice my heart rate go up alot after I eat...does having a high heart rate cause high blood pressure?
I understand your concern and would explain that a higher heart rate is quite normal due to the pain or after eating. Regarding high heart rate and high blood pressure, they could be related to the same cause (physical activity, emotional stress, thyroid gland dysfunction).
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
