hi everyone hoping someone may be able to offer some help or advice. My anxiety is quite high at the moment, I have alot of stuff going on currently in my life which is causing me be constantly stressed and worrying alot. For theast 2 weeks or so I have been getting weird head sensations which I am putting down to head pressure, lack of sleep and stress BUT the thing that's really stressing me out at the moment and the reason for this post is that today I started with a weird pain in my forehead, it's not constant like a headache, it only hurts when I touch the middle of the forehead (about an inch above top of nose and slightly to the left) and it feels like a bruise type pain that spreads when u touch it (I havent banged my head). If it was constant the I would just say it's a headache or migraine but the fact that it's only when I touch it and also the fact that paracetamol and ibuprofen don't ease it at all makes me worry it's something like a tumour or worse and that's why it only hurts to touch it and as you can imagine that in turn is making my anxiety even worse. Hoping someone might be able to offer some help. thank you
it doesn’t sound like anything serious. If it were a tumor it would be way further inside and touching your forehead would not make it hurt. there are many other symptoms with a tumor, , not just pressure or headache .
remember, stress and anxiety can bring in so many symptoms including the one you described. Tension headaches can be very sensitive to touch. you can always get checked out by your doctor for peace of mind.
with my anxiety, i get head pressure and sore spots on my head.
give it a chance to go away on its own. Try to D stress
