Strange headaches???

I have anxiety I would just like to say that first of all just in case it may be that that is causing my headaches
But over the last week or soon I've feel a sort of pressure in my sinus area when i push the front of my face i feel lots of pressure there but sometimes my head hurts at the back of my head as well and I feel like I can't focus on anything or I think I'm feeling a little bit dizzy, can someone shed some light of this before I get myself even more worked up

Hi GaryJ20, I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing difficulties at the moment with your headaches. As you're aware I'm not a doctor so I can't diagnose. Have you had a recent cold or flu, sinus pressure and headaches are not uncommon following these? Have you been under much stress lately, tension headaches can arise due to stress, and anxiety can cause dizziness and tension headaches. Have you got a GP that you can visit? - They will be able to help put your mind at rest and maybe help with the symptoms you are experiencing. Sorry I could not be of more assistance. I really do hope you feel better soon.

This sounds like a sinus headache.  Do you have allergies, or had a cold recently?  Are you congested?  Because what you're describing is a sinus headache.

Hey there. My anxiety causes so much pain in my body it is unreal. Especially in my legs and head/face. My sinuses and temple is where I usually get pain. What I am trying to get at is that what you are describing could very well be anxiety! Being 21 it is unlikely you have anything serious going, but seeing a doctor never hurt anybody. (Especially if the symptoms continue for a few more weeks). I'm sure you're ok.

Sorry for any typos using the iPhone tonight
