Headache in the back of my head and ears become hot before and after exams/tests/strenuous work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tension headache: Stress-induced or "tension" headaches are classically in the temporal region but may involve any part of the head. Changes in blood flow or pressure can cause vessels in the head, neck, or ears to dilate, causing redness. Stress can also cause high blood pressure, so it would be imported to get your blood pressure checked. Stress may also cause migraines.
