>> “You can have a flushed face if your blood pressure is too high” <<

.
That is a myth.

The sole cause of elevation of blood pressure is the constriction of blood vessels, preventing the flow of blood to the extremities of the system.

This can be simply from water retention, or from many other causes.

A flush indicates dilation, which is the opposite.

would not this “as reported” condition of Breitbart include both?

If Breitbart were having an adult beverage there would be flushing but on the other hand what accounts for the white band across his forehead? that to me it would appear to be a lack of pressure (if someone slipped him a mickey & that is known to be done.

In any case here there is skin around this man’s forehead and it is white that would mean exactly what you are saying about constriction of blood vessels & lack the flow of blood-from the neck to the head.

wth do I know- all I know is the death of this man is highly irregular esp. from the eyewitness account
