Hello,

Fluctuations in blood pressure is the likely cause for pressure in head. But better to rule out other brain pathologies for your head pressure. So get done MRI brain. If this is normal then no need to worry much.

Sometimes excessive stress and tension can also cause similar head pressure.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm. You may need anxiolytic drugs (propranolol and flunarizine combination) too.

Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
