Forehead tingling and pain clogged feeling ears

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi, has anyone had this before I have a tingling pain in my forehead between the eyes. Also clogged feeling ears and some eye pain . This has been going on for about a month and half. I had a MRI done and CT scan as well as blood work normal. I had my gallbladder removed little over 5 weeks ago and I have been dealing with that as well. It has been a tough 5 weeks so far. I do have some anxiety with all that has been going .

Just seeing if anyone else has had simlier symptoms or close to it and if any treatment helped .

    Hi, I'm so sorry to hear that you're in pain.

    Last year I too had a similar pain which gave me health anxiety so bad that I was getting dizzy and couldn't drive. I started to get better after an all clear MRI , and some visits to a psychologist. I then got my anxiety under control , but I had to push myself to do things. The pain came from poor posture on the computer, stress and grinding my teeth at night., TMJ. My jaw problem was something my neurologist had at first thought, but it didn't show in any tests and I didn't feel pain there . So it was trips to pysiotherapists , yoga and meditation that helped me cope. I noticed that when I was worried or stressed, I could feel my muscles tighten from shoulders up. When my jaw muscles were too tight I felt dizzy also. Even watching an action movie (with lots of tense scenes) or smiling too much could bring on the symptoms, as my muscles tensed . Well, after 6 mths my final thing to try was the night mouthguard (+ 10mg nightly of Endep for neurological pain) and it worked. But even now if I don't hold myself up straight or overdo computer work or get really stressed, then I can feel the pain/ pressure starting to come on, so I then do relaxing things.  I felt great relief after a clear MRI and slowly moved on from there. But I am only working part-time now(helps a lot) as too much paperwork does my head in.Sleep is also important so I exercise a lot to make sure I'm tired.  I hope this helps.

      Hi , yes thanks for the reply. I had a MRI a month ago all normal. I had my gallbladder out in the middle of June so I have been dealing with that also. I had a eye exam last week because I had eye pain with the forehead pain and tingling as well as one pupil a little bigger than the other but the test from eye Dr was normal I have dry eye .

      I was just seeing if anyone had somewhat the same symptoms I still have it and it sucks. I'm do exercise and I'm in shape

      I'm thinking this just tension and anxiety so I'm dealing with hopefully soon it will easy off.

      Glad you are doing better.
