Can high blood pressure lead to tingling in the face?

High blood pressure, or hypertension, is not commonly known to directly cause tingling in the face. However, other health conditions can lead to face tingling. For example, one potential cause is nerve-related, such as a neurocutaneous dysesthesia affecting the trigeminal nerve and leading to abnormal sensations in the skin without any visible skin rash. Another possible cause is sensitive skin, which is common -- sensitive skin can reacts to different triggers and lead to discomfort or tingling that may occur with or without visible skin changes. Very rarely, a condition known as idiopathic intracranial hypertension has caused symptoms like hemifacial spasms, which might be experienced as tingling or twitching.

While high blood pressure itself might not cause facial tingling, other health conditions could be responsible. If you experience such tingling, especially if the tingling is persistent, severe, worsening, or occurs with visible skin changes like a skin rash, it's important to consult a healthcare professional to determine the cause of these symptoms and the most appropriate treatment.
