How To Overcome Heaviness In The Head?

Hi, my Dad had been having this heaviness in his head for a while now. Few years ago, he had a blackout that he fell and hit his head and since then he had had this issue. He was diagnosed with high blood pressure and was taking the meds and watching his diet but every time he eats something, he said that his head feels heavy and he just cant do anything but sit or lay down. Please advise as Doctors in my country is unable to provide us a clear explanation to this condition and whether this is a possible remedy for it.
