    I feel the same way guy! Plus sometimes it's like Air is flowing out my temples and my forehead! Don't know what it is, what I do know is God didn't want us to be afraid of anything and believe he will take care of you.

    I have been suffering from the same thing now for over three months. I think it started with a chiropractic appointment but I'm not sure. I went in to have my bursitis looked at and he adjusted my neck and I just remember it hurting. Around that same time I started taking probiotics which I found out later Had milk products in it. The problem with that is #1 I'm vegan and #2 When I was a little girl it was discovered that milk products were causing my ear infections. I realized the same thing years later with my children. Anyway, went to the doctor with the ear pain found out I had an ear infection and went to three rounds of anabiotic's. Finally got the infection cleared up but still had the pain in my right ear and pain/pressure in my head. They sent me to an ENT who did a hearing test didn't see any fluid and said everything was fine. I have used cold laser therapy used antihistamines, oral steroids, Flonase decongestants absolutely nothing has helped. That is until I went to an acupuncturist. After the first visit I had almost 24 hours of pain free. But that was short-lived. I still feel like I'm on the right track but I'm just not understanding what in the world is going on. Top it off I got shingles on the opposite side of my head. So now I have the ear pain/pressure on the right side of my head and shingles on the left side. The head pressure hurts when I bend iced or cough. I am so healthy and take good care of myself I just am not getting this. I'm so sick of complaining and being in pain

      Hi, ear and sinus issues often go hand in hand. Pressure felt especially when bending could mean you have something called sphenoid sinusitis, look up the symptoms and see.

    Hey all, was lurking around the Internet looking up why I have pain/pressure in my head and found this group!

    Mine is on the right side, behind my eye and then going all the way back and down my neck. I feel it more when I bend over or cough and sniffle. Sometimes (right now even) I can feel the pain/pressure on the right side of my teeth and jaws. Kind freaks me out because I suffer from anxiety, so it makes it even worse. Most of the time regular advil doesn't work, it just has to go away on its own. To scared to see the doc Cuz she'll probably think I'm crazy.

    Any help or remedies would be appreciated!

    Hey!

    I have been having pressure in the head and neck for 10 months now ;( mine gets worse during the day when sitting for long periods! I'm on propanol and have taken Botox injections in the head and neck to hell with the intensity but still get them and no idea why! I went for mri and all came back normal thank goodness but no idea why going to chiropractor, osteopath, physio, massage or naturopath won't help long term! So stuck and not sure what to do but glad others can relate ;(

      Mine also gets worse during the day! EVERY day! Almost pain free in the morning. Some evenings I'm back in bed by 7:00 it's so bad! I SWEAR mine started with a chiropractor making a neck adjustment that I didn't ask for!

    If you haven't already have your doctor check for chiari malformation. It took 2 years and several MRIs for someone to catch that I had this and the same symptoms

    Mine contributed to get worse and I loss the strength in my arm and couldn't walk straight either.

    I just had the surgery and am feeling better 4weeks PO
