hai,
factor like genetic exposure,age,environmental ,diet,exercise will influence and precipitate hypertension.
adding to that hypertension will be associated with any heart abnormality and systemic abnormality like thyroid problem etc.
as you got hypertension kindly consult a physician for proper treatment and management.
migraine is not a causative factor for hypertension.
following certain lifestyle and diet will help in lowering hypertension.
reduce salt intake in your daily usage.
Avoid junk,fried food
smoking should be avoid (if you had it)
daily walking for 30 minutes will help .
thank you
