Headache Feels Heavy?
I often have headaches or dizziness. It feels like it’s heavy but not painful, I feel like there’s a lot of stuff in my head. Then if I massaged my shoulder at a certain point it made my head feel lighter. Why do you think that? Thank you

Hi Salmanur,
Dizziness basically can be felt in various symptoms as a floating sensation, the head feels heavy, like going to faint, loses balance, or the surroundings feel like spinning. The various possible causes of dizziness include:
Low blood pressure Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels) Anemia Stress or anxiety Lack of fluid intake Disorders of the blood vessels of the brain Migraine Vertigo Brain tumors
To reduce the incidence of complaints, the following suggestions can be made:
Get enough rest and regulate adequate sleep patterns for 7-9 hours every night Try not to get too tired and limit strenuous activities Eat regularly and don't eat late Increase the consumption of water 2-3 liters a day Minimize stress Regular light exercise
However, if with self-management the complaints continue to recur, then it's a good idea to consult a doctor so that the underlying cause can be traced and appropriate treatment given according to the underlying condition.
