What Causes Frequent Headaches In The Front Of Forehead?

My husband has been getting headaches in the front of his forehead. The Dr said it was a sinus headache and prescribe Zyrtec. It has not helped at all. The only relief he get is when he is chewing something anything. As long as he is chewing it helps. Do you have any suggestions as to what these headaches are?

Hi,Welcome to HealthCareMagic,
As per your query, this type of headache can be due to many reasons.
1. Most common is elevated blood pressure.
2. Migraine
3. Sinusitis which is infection of sinuses
4. Meningitis
5. Cluster headache

In case of sinusitis following remedies can be done
1.Steam Inhalation can be done. steam inhalation helps to thin mucus in nasal cavities and sinuses. So they can be removed easily & thus opening them
2. Nasal drops can be used too
3.You can take acetaminophen or paracetamol,it helps to reduce pain.
If problem persist, should visit a ENT specialist/neurospecialist (head specialist).

Hope you get the query
