What Does Pressure In The Head Indicate?

My roommate is a 23 year old male who in the past month is being monitored for a subdural spinal hematoma. He s getting an angiogram in two weeks for the doctors to assess the bleeding. For the past two days he has been experiencing head pressure (something he describes as not a headache) fogginess and tingling in his back. Does this warrant an ER visit?

hello.
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think there is a high likelihood that the blood has extended into the brain.
That may be causing the problem.
therefore, Yeswill suggest visiting the ER.
I hope that helps.
