What Does Pressure On The Left Side Of The Head Indicate?

hi so i got a concussion may of 2016, i feel pretty much normal now excpect this weird sensation in my left side of my head. its hard to explain but its like a knot or tightness and i can feel it most when my body temperature elevates like with exercise or when i start to sweat. I feel it mostly all the time but only increases in uncomfortability when im doing physical activity. I feel it when i swallow but in my head somewhere. the right side feels completely fine and i can tell there is a distinguished difference. sometimes if im running and i start to feel it, i have to stop because it starts to feel so heavy and thick. i cant tell if its mucus because im always trying to get it out but ive felt this for about a year and a half (3 months after concussion)

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You can consult a physician to get your both eyes and blood pressure examined. If it is normal then you can take tramadol and paracetamol combination.

After this, if not resolved then consult neurophysician and do MRI if he says so.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel
