What Causes Pressure On The Right Eye And The Forehead?

I am 35 female. I have tightness/pressure in my left eye & into my forehead above it. It doesn t hurt but my eyelid feels somewhat swollen. The pressure feels constant. It s been probably over a month. I ve been ignoring it but it s not going away. Any thoughts?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having pressure around the eye and in forehead.
This is usually seen in inflammatory diseases involving the structures around the eye.
The most common cause is sinusitis.
The treatment is by use of antibiotics and antiinflammatory drugs.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
