Hi again

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Nice to see you again.

It is good that your blood pressure is normal.

Regarding your head being heated up, I could think of two main causes: one if fever itself and second is high room temperature leading to heat intolerance. Another cause could be some medicine. Since head has abundant blood supply to the skin, a large proportion of heat loss also happens from head and neck

Thus, I need more details about your symptoms to be better able to help you.

Regards
