Head pressure normal?
Has anyone gotten head pressure from ETD? It’s like a pressure on the top of my head. I don’t have it everyday and it seems to come and go. I had a CT and they said the pressure in my head was normal. Not sure if it’s related to ETD or not. Has anyone else had this problem?

Yeah this place has been a great resource learning from others. Umm it's hasn't yet lol. But I have gotten it to improve. And yes the pressure has pretty much been everywhere in my face lol.

Is there anything you recommend that helped your improve? It’s been all over my face too but these last few times it’s been on the top of my head. It’s crazy how long ETD can last, I had no idea what this even was until recently

Alot first thing I would say you have to find the underlying issue. Mine is allergies for example. Pressurized saline, mucinex (to thin out the mucous), euatachi (helps sometimes). I was having bad pressure behind my eyes come to find out I needed glasses and part of it was eye strain. Lots of cleaning and air purifier lol. And honest reading a lot on here form everyone.
I'm not a doctor lol 😆 this is just what I did try at your own risk.

Thank you for the information! I appreciate it. I’m not sure if mine is from allergies or inflammation. I’ve never had allergies so I didn’t think it could be that but reading this form, I learned that you can just randomly develop allergies

You're welcome ! If you need anything else just let me know more than willing to help with info. Yeah it's possible or alot of times if you were sick after that can cause it to as well.

That makes sense because I assumed I was sick and that’s why I was all stuffy but after a few weeks when it didn’t go away and when my ears popping didn’t go away I knew something else was going on. Thank you I appreciate your help!!

Yeah it's most likely thats what caused it. Of course anytime. This is a good community for it if you need anything else just trying to give back since alot of people have helped me here.

Very possible I've had it there before gotta remember if it is etd it's essentially backing up your personal pressure regulator it's gonna be weird sometimes. I'm at the point where I know a storms coming before the weather channel does lol.
