Burning in head HELP!!!
Recently I've been having this weird sensation in the back of my head, its a few inches above my left ear and feels as if it was burning, at times i will feel my hands getting hot, I was diagnosed with depression about a year ago could this trigger thees symptoms or is it something more serious that i should worry about?
MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL
Hi there. You need to be checked for migraines and any intracranial space-occupying lesion like a tumor, cyst or hemorrhage for this burning sensation in head. Depression can cause perception problems but an MRI head would rule out doubts. Consult a neurologist immediately. Hope this helps. Take care.
