Hello dear,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com. I understand your concern. The pain you are having in the middle of the head along with burning sensation is most likely 'Tension type headache'(TTH) or 'Stress headache'. TTH is typically characterised by paresthesias(like burning sensation in your case) along with headache.Headache may persist day and night.Please start doing mental relaxation exercises/Yoga/Pranayama. Tab.amitriptyline 10 mg once a day at bedtime may help.Please take medicines under a physician's guidance.
Please tell whether headache is associated with nausea,photophobia,phonophobia or visual aura.If association with these factors is present,then diagnosis of migraine is also to be considered.Please visit a physician to provide detail history,so that he makes the appropriate diagnosis.I hope it helps.
