Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Could Cause Lightheadedness With Pressure In The Neck & Temple?
I have been feeling very lightheaded the past three days. Almost like I am drunk, which I am not. I also am feeling clammy. I am pressure in the neck and temples. At one time I was told that I had a decreased amount of blood flow to the brain from swelling. This does not feel the same though.
Apart form the light headed and pressure in neck and temple other neurological symptoms and signs needs an assessment clinically.
Post which you may have to undergo an MRI to see the soft tissues within the body and to understand the causing of the symptoms and the soft tissue changes.
Based on the possible comparission of the clinical neurological findings and the MRI report the physician will initiate the treatment.
