I've been having constant pressure in my head for almost two years straight, now. Sometimes it goes away for very short periods of time (like after a meal), only to come back a hundred times worse 20-30 minutes later. But I usually have it every minute of every day, and it is very, very annoying. I can't concentrate.
I've always thought this was due to some strange health abnormality. I'm only 24 years old.
Only recently, after reading some information on sinus pressure, have I considered strongly that this pressure in my head could be directly related to sinus inflammation/cloggage.
I don't have heavy congestion (only when it rains), and can usually breathe 100% through the nostrils. So it's not like I was able to make the link between congestion and sinus pressure. This pressure just "appeared" one day, and has never gone away since.
Email me or reply here with your advice.
Are there any "tests" one can try, or good/safe medications to use.. To check to see whether my head pressure is due to sinus problems, or not?
I can say that I do often get blurred/cloudy vision, and i've heard this is also a symptom of sinus pressure. I'm also very fatigued/tired at times, I can't concentrate, and the pressure never goes away.
I live with this every day, and it's about time I consider whether sinus problems are the main factor here.
What do you folks think? I originally thought this was due to blocked off/constricted blood vessels in my brain, or impeded blood flow (increased intracranial pressure), but since I can't prove that, perhaps maybe my problem is due to sinus pressure?
Reply asap, and i'll try whatever you folks think I should!
Help needed--this is too annoying, and i've had it for 2 years!!!
