A member asked:

Tightness in the forehead/neck area and sometimes feeling slight dizzy.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tension: It sounds like you are describing tension headache which is present in the forehead and neck area. This is quite common. I suggest you try some stretching, massage, relaxation and advil or Tylenol for the pain.
