Does Toothache Cause High BP?

My vitamen B shows up on my physical flagged. I take a monthly injection as my colon was removed and B12 is mostly absorbed in the ileum. My BP is also high but I am having problems with a couple of root canals. Can pain from my teeth effect my blood pressure like that?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Pain anywhere in the body may cause bp to rise so if bp is high during pain then it may be related to toothache. If it's elevated without pain then it's probably age related and you should be on medicines.

Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
