Is It A Cause Of Concern After Experiencing A Strong Pulsation On The Right Side Of Forehead While Taking Medication For Hypertension?

My husband is experiencing a strong pulsation on the right side of his forehead. It is not painful but you can see it moving on his skin and he can feel it. He is on 2 medications for hypertension but his BP is 133/88. Should we be concerned?
Thanks
