	Answer by Dr Noopur S, MD (doctor) on Tue 22, Jul 2008 06:50am: Hi, The headache that you are experiencing is due to high BP. Please see a physician immediately as you need prescription medications to lower BP. In the meantime please restrict your salt in intake and eat a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables. The itchiness and burning in the feet can be due to high blood sugar. How much is your blood sugar? Are you taking antidiabetic agents?
