Introduction
Frontal dullness and heaviness may be caused by insufficient sleep, vascular neuralgia, sinusitis, etc., and can be improved through general treatments, medications, and other interventions. Besides the above-mentioned causes, it could also result from frontal sinusitis, cerebral arteriosclerosis, hypertension, or other conditions. For an accurate diagnosis, patients are advised to undergo a thorough examination at the hospital.
Frontal dullness and heaviness may be caused by factors such as sleep deprivation, vascular neuralgia headache, or sinusitis. Symptoms can be improved through general treatments, medications, and other approaches. Specific analyses are as follows:
1. Sleep Deprivation
Prolonged staying up late or high levels of mental stress may lead to insufficient sleep, affecting overall physical condition and resulting in symptoms such as a stuffy, heavy feeling in the head. Maintaining adequate sleep usually helps alleviate these symptoms.
2. Vascular Neuralgic Headache
This is a relatively common neurological disorder that causes symptoms including headache, a tight band-like sensation around the head, pressure, or heaviness. It is commonly seen in migraines and tension-type headaches. Patients may take medications such as Anshen Bunao Liquid, Yangxue Qingnao Granules, or Tianmasu tablets under medical guidance to relieve symptoms.
3. Sinusitis
Sinusitis is typically an inflammatory condition of the nasal sinuses caused by bacterial or fungal infections. In severe cases, it may affect bone structures, surrounding tissues, and adjacent organs, leading to facial and head pain, a feeling of fullness, nasal congestion, and runny nose. Patients may use medications such as budesonide nasal spray or fluticasone propionate nasal spray as directed by a physician to improve symptoms.
Besides the above causes, frontal dullness and heaviness could also result from conditions such as frontal sinusitis, cerebral arteriosclerosis, or hypertension. For an accurate diagnosis, patients are advised to undergo a thorough medical evaluation at a hospital.
