Yes: The accurate evaluation of this problem will require a physical examination by a healthcare provider. Allergy testing can be done by either skin testing or blood testing (rast).

Absolutely: The ears and ear tubes are intimately associated and connected to the sinuses. And head pressure could actually be sinus pressure.

Not tinnitus: Allergic nasal disease (rhinitis) if poorly controlled for several days can lead to obstruction of drainage of sinuses leading to pressure/pain in the head but tinnuitus rarely, if ever, is part of this condition. Advise seeing primary care provider and consider neurology and/or ENT consult.
