Why does the middle of my forehead hurt and feel a little nauseous?
Pain in the middle of the forehead accompanied by nausea may be caused by physiological factors, or by conditions such as migraine or cervical spondylosis. A detailed analysis is as follows:
1. Physiological Factors
This commonly occurs after insufficient sleep or intense mental stress. The pain in the forehead area is usually mild and resolves spontaneously after rest and emotional calming. Generally, there is no need for concern.
2. Disease-Related Factors
1) Migraine
Migraines are often associated with factors such as cold exposure or mental stress. Patients may also experience other symptoms including dizziness and vomiting. In such cases, medications such as ibuprofen sustained-release capsules or diclofenac sodium sustained-release tablets should be taken under a doctor's guidance to relieve symptoms.
2) Cervical Spondylosis
If a patient has cervical spondylosis, the blood vessels connecting the cervical spine to the brain may become narrowed, leading to forehead pain and nausea, along with neck pain and numbness in the upper limbs. In this case, medications such as celecoxib capsules or Jingfukang granules should be taken under medical supervision to improve symptoms.
In addition to the above common causes, other diseases such as hypertension or cerebral hemorrhage could also be responsible. Patients should seek timely medical evaluation and treatment to avoid delays in managing their condition.
