What Could Be The Cause For Constant Headache Above Eye, Ringing Ears, With All Tests Clear While Being On BP Medication?

What is the charge for this service I have had a headache daily since July. it is located above my right eye. Ringing in my ears started at the same time. My blood pressure was high so I was started on blood pressure medicine. Mri was done with and without contrast. Went to an ENT office and more MRII on the sinuses. Nothing significant showed up. Went to an allergist to see if that was the problem. When I bend forward, the pressure above my eye increases. have been to a neurologist. Could I have a pinched nerve. The pain does radiate down the back of my head into my neck and shoulders. I think --no I kknow I tense up when I get the pain above my eye. maybe that is causing some of the pain. I do need to know what costs are invloved in this program before I continue. thank you,

Hi,

According to your history and no issues in MRI for sinus, it could be a pinched nerve. I'll suggest you to go for MRI cervical spine to rule out any nerve compression. Take some conservative measures like sleeping without pillow and cervical collar support and avoid bending forward at neck. For pain take Pregabalin with vit b12 in the meantime. Once diagnosis is confirmed further treatment can be done.
