Heaviness in Head: Urgent Medical Assistance Needed

It’s good that you’ve ruled out heart issues and hypertension. However, the persistent heaviness in the head and fatigue could be related to other causes such as anemia, thyroid issues, or even stress and anxiety. I would recommend visiting an internal medicine specialist or a neurologist for a thorough evaluation to pinpoint the cause and get appropriate treatment.

Can I manage Chiari malformation syndrome at 60?

Chiari malformation syndrome occurs when the lower region of the brain known as the cerebellum gets compressed through the skull hole that permits the spinal cord to pass. It can lead to symptoms such as headaches, neck pain, dizziness, or walking problems. Treatment can be routine medications for the symptoms and sometimes surgery to relieve the pressure on the brain. Discuss your symptoms with your neurologist.

You've been dealing with a headache that keeps coming back. According to what you said, you might be facing a tension headache. Tension headaches can send pain to one side of your head, around your temple, eye, ear, and neck. Stress, poor posture, or not getting enough sleep can take them. It is necessary to regulate stress, exercise proper posture, and get enough rest.

Why do loud sounds make me feel dizzy?

You may be experiencing noise-induced dizziness, wherein loud sounds or certain surroundings make you feel off-balance or dizzy. It can occur as a result of the sensitivity of your inner ear. It is perfectly normal to be anxious in such situations. Try the earplugs in the noisy areas and take short breaks in the quieter spots. If the issue remains, it is necessary to talk with a neurologist for more information in case of a further problem.
