What you need to know about pressure in the head

Head pressure can result from headaches or ear infections, but it can also signal a more severe condition, such as a concussion or tumor, health experts have said.

Online site Healthline says head pressure may occur with other symptoms like dizziness.

It further notes that a number of conditions can cause a sensation of tightness, weight, or pressure in the head.

These sensations can range in intensity from mild to severe, noting that most conditions that result in head pressure aren’t cause for alarm.
