Frontal Headache — Which Doctor Should I See?

Frontal headaches can result from tension, migraines, sinus infections, eye strain, caffeine withdrawal, dehydration, or stress. Less commonly, they may indicate more serious conditions requiring medical evaluation.

Try resting in a dark room, applying cold or warm compresses, staying hydrated, taking over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen, practicing relaxation techniques, and avoiding triggers like bright lights or loud noises.

Seek medical attention if headaches are severe, sudden, frequent, accompanied by fever/vision changes/weakness, or if they worsen despite treatment. Persistent new headaches also warrant professional evaluation.
