<p>Both are sensitive to touch… and the top of head is usually accompanied by burning/tingling under scalp.

Sometimes a sinus headache (an example only) can be felt up at the area around the forehead (I’ve had it happen a couple times).

Because of the tingling and burning going on this could mean something is going on with the nerves to that area.

The only way to know for sure is to see your doctor for further evaluation of the situation to see what they think could be going on.


< p>http://www.northhoustonchiropractic.net/site/headache.html we can help with your headaches & Migraines..Each year, about 25 million people in the U.S. experience migraine headaches, and about 75% are women. Migraines are intense and throbbing headaches that are often associated with nausea and sensitivity to light or noise. They can last from as little as a few hours to as long as a few days. Many of those who suffer from migraines experience visual symptoms called an “aura” just prior to an attack that is often described as seeing flashing lights or that everything takes on a dream-like appearance. Although headaches can be due to a wide variety of causes, such as drug reactions, temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ), tightness in the neck muscles, low blood sugar, high blood pressure, stress and fatigue, the majority of recurrent headaches are of two types: tension headaches (also called cervicogenic headaches) and migraine headaches.Duration : 0:1:39

<p>What works for you? I have found that excedrine tension works for me, but it has caffeine in it and caffeine and me do not do well together- any other remedies for this specific headache type? My mother bought me a pillow that you can put in the fridge or microwave- which is better for tension headahces? Head or cold? Thank you so much in advance!
I said "head" but meant "hot" or "Cold" which is better?

I wouldn’t put cold on back of neck, cold compresses are to constract. I suggest to buy a bag that is either sand or rice you put in microwave for no longer then 1- 2 min. place on back of neck(making sure not touch skin)This will open the blood flow back to brain. Also, a hot shower on back of neck. A good massage either by yourself or someone else. Always massage sides and middle moving (upward) still to allow more blood flow back to brain. Yes, caffien, smoking will not do. Never fall asleep using the bag, it could cause burns. Find out the reason for tension, try to elimate as much as posible of stress. Sleep well, eat right,and if you take pills, try off the counter first. I wouldn’t suggest pain pills as they can be additive, and with more side affects. When massaging also massage your temples, where sinuses are and up beside nose. Massage forehead and whole head as well. Cold can also be helpfull with a wet cold cloth over eyes, or forehead. Always check with Doctor to find out exactly what he may think is causing problem. He might have catscan to see if anything else could be elimanated. Hope I’ve helped.
