Why Having Pressure In Head While Coughing And Heard Popping Sound Behind Eye?

I was coughing very hard, and there was an enormous amount of pressure in my head. I then heard a popping sound behind my eye and immediately felt an intense headache for a few minutes. The headache subsided since then, but if I bend over or cough again it comes back with the same sharp pain.

Hi,
It seems that due to spasmodic cough there is strain and spasm of facial and scalp muscles giving rise this problem.
During acute sinusitis also one gets this type of pain.
consult your doctor and get examined.
Take some cough suppressant syrup and pain reliever medicines.
Do Vicks vapor inhalation.
Ok and take care.
