Headache
Hi doctor
From time to time I get headaches at work, and they are usually all pretty similar; slight pressure above my eyes over the area of my forehead and tingling skin over my forehead.
But today the pressure is just above my left eye and the skin doesn't tingle as much, but it feels numb and my left eye feels drooopy, even though it doesn't look droopy when I look in the mirror.
Should I see a doctor? What could it be? Is it just stress?

Hi Francois
This answer is probably now very late but our website gave some problems - pressure headaches are usually because of stress or muscle spasm. If you have any facial loss of feeling of movement you should see a doctor.
