Hi All,
Almost 6 weeks back i had a headache with constant feverish feeling, dizziness in head, off balance feeling, sometimes congested head feeling. I went to doctor and he told me its sinusitis (i have sinus problem).  had an anbiotic course for 4 days and it went away. After like 10 days it came back with pressure (which originates from center of head and takes over my upper head area) and burning feeling in my head and i was todl to continue medication. Now pressuer and burning feeling in releived but i feel sometimes lightheaded and feel as if i will get off balance any time. I sometimes havse slight head ache and burnign feeling in head which keeps on moving throughtout the head...I feel my head is congested sometimes. I DONT HAVE ANY NASAL DRAINAGE OF MUCUS , NO SINUS PRESSURE NO RUNNU NOSE NO SORE THROAT

Do i need to see a neurologist...Any help what is it...i will really appreciate ..... THANKS ALL

Hi,

How are you?
Burning headache is most commonly the result of sinusitis or flu. The headache due to sinusitis is a constant burning headache which can travel to other parts of the head as well.
I think your sinusitis is not completely cured. You can suggest to your ENT about the possibility of getting a CT scan or an MRI done as that will make things more clear.
Only if sinusitis is ruled out do you need to see a neurologist to rule out brain tumors and brain growths as a cause of burning pain.
Take care!
