Question : hi. i have anxiety disorder and lots of stress. if im active for awhile or have prolonged anxiety, the sides of my head and sometimes between my eyes and in my ear start to hurt. mostly a stinging, electric, stabbing sensation and a feeling of tightness all over my face / eyes.

does that sound like blood pressure or nerve pain?

Brief Answer:
Possible symptoms of free-floating Anxiety

Detailed Answer:
Hello Ma'am,

I can certainly understand your concern.

I have worked through your attached query in detail.

These symptoms are due to uncorrected anxiety symptoms.

It's advisable to start anxiolytic medications at the earliest for adequate symptomatic control.

I generally prescribe oral medication of a group of drugs called SSRIs like Escitalopram and another group like Pregabalin for adequate control of your symptoms.

Please check with your physician if he/she shares my opinion and if can prescribe these medications to you.

Post your further questions if any.
Thank you
