My sister is 21 years old. She has been getting headaches every 4-5 days or a week. She does take pain killers every time to get rid of pain. She has been getting headaches for the past 2 years. Recently when her blood pressure was measured the readings where 170/115. Does painkiller increase the blood pressure? Or high blood pressure is the cause of headaches. Any tips would be so helpful. Thank you in advance.

Hello, Headache is one of sign of high bp. Pain killers never Increase blood pressure. So consult any cardiologist near by your location. Mean while take low sodium salt and do deep breathing exercise. Pain killers are not the treatment of headache. Thanks.
