What Causes Headaches And Elevated Blood Pressure Levels?
I am feeling headache at the sides of my head for 3days and visited the hospital yesterday and diaginised with a bp of 150/90 and after doing widal test and all it was known that I have typhoid. Now am I have been placed on typhoid medication. I want to knowbig typhoid can make my bp go that up. Am just 27years
Typhoid can give headache and fever and some more symptoms . However this has not been found to cause high blood pressure directly .But yes stress can raise BP slightly with stress of any cause . However your readings of BP is not very high. I would suggest u keep checking your blood pressure for a few days and decide about management.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
