Hi,
Thanks for asking.
It can be beginning of hearing loss many a times.... but,
Not just the pressure , but severe head ache on bending suggests possibility of problem like brain tumor ( which is treatable when diagnosed early )
I would suggest MRI of skull to find/ exclude brain tumor & get specific treatment by a neurosurgeon.
Thanks
