What Causes Pressure In Forehead?

I have been having a weird feelings on top of my head and forehead. Pressure on my forehead along with pressure on top of my head. Also have a feeling of pins and needles/ants or some type of creator crawling on top of my head. I have asked my doctor, however he doesn t think it is a big issue. Most of all just a big nuisance.

Thank you for writing to HCM

I think that you have some sort nerve compression that supplies to the areas of the forehead. I can review this to get to the cause. Do you have any other symptoms or are you on any medication?

There is also a small chance that you have a vitamin deficiency which is causing the issue. You can start on 1 multivitamin daily to help you. Take this or 2 weeks and then follow up to see if this helps you.

Also drink a lot of water so that we know that you are not dehydrated so that you are not getting the numbness because of the dehydration.

Hope this helps you
