Head Pressure, mostly in the back of my head

Dear Ask The Doctor: I've been feeling lots of pressure on the back of my head for sometime now and that pressure gets worst when I bend over. I feel the same pressure everyonce in awhile around my forehead and temples but mostly in the back of my head. What can I do to relieve some of that pressure?

Dear Pedro: The symptoms that you are experiencing could be due to tension type headache of sinusitis. You will definitely feel better with rest and anti inflammatory medications like ibuprofen, naproxen etc. If your symptoms do not improve with these measures sinusitis could be a cause for which nasal spray with saline several times a day, steam inhalation and using humidifiers is indicated.
