What Causes Pressure In The Head Along With Dizziness And Tinnitus?

I develop head pressure when I walk which is followed by some feelings of being off balance/dizzy and, whooshing noise in ears and headache. I have had brain mri all clear. I have cervical disc protrusion at C5-6 of 2-3 mm with some foraminal narrowing and C6-7. I have pain in my neck radiating down to my shoulder blades that burns. Nothing seems to be working...currently on Cymbalta. I have had PT for months, acupuncture and a cortisone injection. Injection reduced pain for a period but the head stuff seems to be worse now. I had a repeat cervical MRI to determine there was no spinal fluid leak from the epidural.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The issue sounds to be an imbalance at the cochlear or vestibular pathway of the auditory canal and the same should be addressed in details for further management perspectives.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Purva Patel, General & Family Physician
