Hello,
Hypertension and other associated symptoms can be due to withdrawing from pain medication (if you were on opioids).
It is difficult to give you a definite answer without knowing your complete history and the medications you are taking. So, please be advised to follow up with the urgent care.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal
