I feel my pulse on the left side of my head and my blood pressure is low. why dose this happen ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not entirely sure: It is normal to feel your pulse over the temporal area of your head. This is the superficial temporal artery. Are you sure your "blood pressure is low?" Absolute hypotension is defined as below 90/60 mmHg. In most patients, this is something serious, suggesting impending shock. I would check your blood pressure first, and then seek help, especially if you have symptoms of low blood pressure.
