High Blood Pressure Caused by Pain?

I have either an injury or a pinched nerve that causes immense pain in my wrist and arm. The pain gets so bad that my blood pressure (which is normally 109/69) sky rockets up to 174/101. I do not have hypertension. I keep taking my pain pills to reduce the pain, but is there anything I can do in the meantime to try and lower my blood pressure? Thank you in advance.

Update:

I am on different pain meds and I am allergic to Tramadol and other meds like it. I am not looking to control the pain, just my blood pressure when the pain flairs up.

Update 2:

I am desperate. I know having high blood pressure is not good for my heart, but until the pain meds kick in and actually aleviate the pain, is there anything else I can do?

    yes pain can elevate your blood pressure and your heart rate as well. There is not much you can do until your pain medication starts working. Try and monitor your blood pressure and write down the readings maybe you can find a self diagnose blood pressure cuff in a pharmacy. It is very important that your blood pressure stabilizes but most times it will not and you will need to be put on blood pressure meds. High blood pressure that is not treated can be very dangerous and even cause heart attack. Your wrist pain can be that you developed tendinitis and need to wear a brace. Staying off the keyboard will help with your wrist pain. Feel better and I hope this helped a little.

    Hi, my name is Christian Goodman

    I’m well-known in the health field as a natural health researcher.

    My articles have been published on several thousand websites as well as many off-line health journals.

    In this letter, I’ll share my story of how I accidentally stumbled onto this method that quickly and naturally lowers high blood pressure after having suffered life-threatening hypertension for years.

    What I discovered was so easy, so simple yet so powerful that it led me to create a program . . . that helps more than 88.7% of those who use it to normalize their blood pressure – usually within a week.

    "I am delighted with the results with your blood pressure prog, I’ve dropped from around 146/90 to today’s reading 122/74."

    "I believe this is magic. I got your program yesterday and already I feel better. I go back to my Doctor today. She will be happy for me. I really hope to get off this medicine. The side effects will kill you. I slept all night after doing the evening excerize. Thank you so much."

    Yes it does connect. And do call your "Ask a Nurse" at your local hospital rather than to ask here, as no one has a complete medical history. I personally am thinking 'diabetic neuropathy' but again, ask someone who is knowledgeable.
