Hello! Welcome to Chat Doctor ! 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 cerebra vascular stroke. Hope that clarifies your concern. Thank you for the query. Take care
