It is important to properly evaluate and determine the underlying cause of headaches. Dr. Hoang Quyet Tien from the Medical Information Center at Tam Anh General Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City explains that there are more than 150 types of headaches, each with different causes and locations of pain. Pain in the forehead can feel like a heavy object pressing on the head or a tight squeeze around the head. This type of headache is often accompanied by symptoms such as pain in the temples, stiffness in the neck, shoulders, and nape.
