What Causes Discomfort In The Head While Suffering From Hypertension?

Hi. My Father was recently in the hospital for very high blood pressure. He is above age 60. He mentioned recently, he felt a sensation in the back of his head, as if a faucet had been turned on and a bunch of fluid trickled down. Any thoughts to what this might be? He can be hard to convince to seek help at times but this has cause for concern. Any feedback appreciated.
