Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!
Sometimes high blood pressure can affect the nerves in a condition called hypertensive neuropathy. This feeling always decreases after being normal blood pressure, he also must get a CT brain scan to exclude cerebro vascular stroke.
Hope that clarifies your concern. Thank you for the query.
Take care
