Head/Eye pressure. Sinuses?

Hey everyone!

Lately I've been having headaches and it's most my forhead and sharp pains around my eyes/nose. It just feels like added pressure and kind of a dizzy feeling..but im not dizzy. If that makes sense?

Could this be a sinus? And if so, what would make it go away?

It sounds to me like you're all experiencing something that is common to most households out there, which used to include my own. If indeed you are all suffering from allergies than it is for sure something that I've dealt with before, but it can also be that your are suffering from normal particle counts that is normal to indoor air. What I found out when I did research on this is that most people out there do not actually realize that the headaches and symptoms that they deal with every day can in fact be diagnosed. The problem is their air at home.

I had this problem, as I said, and a colleague of mine enlightened me to what it was that I was missing, which was that my air was making my health poor. I did research on this as well as the air filter system she had suggested to me, and I found the explanation and the system quite satisfactory to what I was going through. The results of my research and subsequent purchase, were equally satisfactory. Based upon my research and my results I would readily suggest to you that you'd look into these filters, which are called Polarized Media filters. They go on your furnace and create a static field that attracts the particles to the fibers, which is an efficient system to clean your air as opposed to the normal paper filters.

The best place that I've found to purchase these filters is at www.airlifeone.com. I'd look for the Electrobreeze brand as opposed to the other, as it's cheaper and still about the same product. And if you have any questions, I've found the company is very easy to talk to, which is something I don't find often.

I hope that this helps.

Hi there.  I've had similar symptoms and at first was diagnosed with sinusitis.  Antibiotics helped.  But some of the pressure in the face and headaches never went away, and the doctor's theory now is it might be migraine, or even allergies.  You might try nasal rinses, acetaminophen and OTC allergy meds first, to see if it helps.  If it doesn't I guess I'd suggest checking with a doctor because there's a ton of things it could be.  Good luck.

Hey there...I have had pressure around the bridge of my nose, and dull pressure and pain around my eye sockets for over a year now.

Can't quite figure out where it is coming from...had sinus surgery but that did not solve the problem.  I also feel dizzy, sort of, sometimes.  I am thinking maybe there could be some sort of constriction at the neck, whether it be vascular or nerve.


In any event, it is not fun.
