What is pressure in the head? Pressure in the head is a sensation of tightness, throbbing or pain affecting the head, which includes the face, scalp, skull and brain. Pressure in the head may frequently be described as a headache and can affect all or just a portion of the head. Feeling head pressure or a headache is very common, and people of any age group or population can experience pressure in the head. Head pressure and headaches can be caused by such common conditions as inflammation of the sinuses (sinusitis), a cold, or allergies.
There are two separate trigeminal nerves, one on each side of the face. These nerves are responsible for carrying the sensation of pain and other sensations from the face to the brain. Each nerve has three branches (forehand, midface, and chin). Itâs possible to have TN of any (or all) branches. TN causes intense pain in part or all of the face. The pain can be brought on by mild stimulation of the face, such as brushing your teeth or shaving. Itâs often described as feeling like electric shocks or stabbing. People with TN may initially have short, mild instances of pain, but over time they may experience longer, more frequent attacks of intense pain.
