No, kidney stone usually do not increases blood pressure. But if stone is causing any kidney damage, infection or obstruction, than it can presents with high blood pressure. If you are having persistent high blood pressure, get your kidney checked. Consult nephrologist to rule out secondary cause of hypertension.
