allergy headache

Pollen-triggered head pain

A headache triggered by an allergic reaction, typically accompanying other allergy symptoms like congestion, sinus pressure, or watery eyes.

The pain often concentrates around the forehead, cheeks, or behind the eyes as inflamed sinuses create pressure: My allergy headaches get worse during pollen season.

Sometimes called a sinus headache.
