Drinking too much alcohol can raise blood pressure to unhealthy levels. Having more than three drinks in one sitting temporarily increases your blood pressure, but repeated binge drinking can lead to long-term increases.

What would make the blood come to the surface of my skin i am not on blood thinners?

If you mean that your skin is flushed, then it can happen when you drink alcohol. Alcohol can raise blood pressure. You may also have high blood pressure even if you avoid alcohol. You can check your blood pressure yourself at those 'do-it-yourself' BP boothes at many drug stores. Or you can get a checkup at the doctors. Also, if the ambiant temperature where you live is high, the high heat can cause flushing as well. There are certain foods that can cause high blood pressure, such as licorise. Hope that is what you are looking for.

Opioid based painkillers (such as morphine, codeine etc...) have an anti-hypertensive effect (blood pressure lowering effect); however the effect is only visible on quite high dosages, which can create other side-effects, hence why opiates are not used to control high blood pressure. NSAIDS (such as ibuprofen) in most people do not have a measurable effect on blood-pressure either way. Paracetamol also does not affect blood-pressure.
