Suggest Treatment For Symptoms Of Concussion And High BP
I recently suffered a concussion. Never had prior BP issues. I ve been running average of 140/101 the past month. I have been suffering from an excruciating headache since 5am. Checked my BP 4 times. Twice each arm and got the following reads 160-110, 155/107, 145/104, 150/101. Should I seek medical attention?
