Hello, The likely cause for your tingling, one is cervical cause which is due to spine problem. Does this pain increase on neck movement, or any neck trauma, these may be the associated symptoms.  You should get x cervical spine AP/ Lat view and further may need MRI.  You need to visit physiotherapist after x-ray and also orthopaedician. Till the time he can have tabbed erosion forte once a day which is a nerve vitamin. If this is not helpful then you need to Tab Pregabalin 75 mg bedtime, which is a nerve stabilizer.  For BP, have low salt diet and monitor blood pressure regularly thrice a day for one week then once or twice a week. If BP is persistently more than 140/90 MMH, then you should be on medicines for it. You can tab Amlodipine 2.5/5 mg depending upon the BP levels. Regular exercises like brisk walking, jogging according your capacity at least 30 min a day and 5 days a week.  Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
