What Causes Heaviness Around The Head?

Hi its great that this is possible with doctors being online for quick questions. I am a bit concerned as I have this strange heaviness around my head the last few days. Not sure how to describe it very well but it is like heaviness/pressure not necessarily headache in one specific spot. Thank you for your thoughts if any!

Hello,

Heaviness in or around the head is suggestive of increased blood pressure, get your blood pressure levels checked and visit a physician for proper clinical examination and further treatment due to lack of information about your age and aggravating or relieving factors reaching to conclusion is difficult, decrease salt intake and look for other signs and symptoms of high blood pressure.
