Hi there, For the past week in the mornings severe dizzyness and pressure on the right side of my lover skull and there is a heavyness and tightness. I cannot sleep on my back for the pressure and sometimes my face feels tight and I was wondering if this is a sinus infection and what to do about it. Thankyou

Neurologist 's  Response
Hello,

It is possible that your symptoms point to sinus congestion but they could also be the symptoms of a headache syndrome such as moderate to moderately severe tension-type or even migrainous headache.

In order to have this condition properly evaluated and treated I recommend you seek out the services of a qualified doctor or neurologist who will then, obtain the proper history and perform the proper tests to tell what the diagnosis is which should lead to proper therapeutics.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dariush Saghafi, Neurologist
