If you have regular, intense headaches especially if they’re worse when you lie down or bend forward or if you’ve also noticed vision changes, ringing in your ears, or neck/shoulder pain, you may be dealing with more than a standard headache. One condition to investigate is IHH, where pressure inside your skull rises and impacts the nervous system.
“Iidiopathic” means the cause is unknown; “intracranial” means within the skull; and “hypertension” means high pressure. In IHH, cerebrospinal fluid or blood flow may build up, increasing pressure on the brain and optic nerves.
This elevated pressure shows up as headaches and can affect vision, hearing, balance and overall quality of life
Here are some common signs that your headaches might be linked to IHH:
A constant, throbbing or pressure-type headache, often worse when lying down, bending forward or coughing.
Seeing blurred vision, blind spots, double vision, or noticing your vision fading with time.
Hearing whooshing or pulsating noise in your ears (pulsatile tinnitus).
Neck or shoulder pain, nausea, and occasionally dizziness or imbalance.
Note: Because IHH can mimic other conditions, it’s important to do a full assessment not just treat the headache in isolation.
At our clinic, we adopt a comprehensive strategy: diagnosing carefully, treating the root, supporting the nervous system and helping you manage symptoms. Here’s how:
We’ll ask about the headache pattern, associated symptoms (vision/hearing), lifestyle and physical triggers. We’ll also consider whether imaging or specialist referral is required.
Alongside standard migraine/headache management we’ll work with aspects such as posture, neck/upper-back alignment, and the circulation/nerve-load around your skull and spine.
These include sleep posture, ergonomics, hydration, hormonal/weight issues, and avoiding factors that raise intracranial pressure (like very heavy lifting or severe straining).
Because IHH may require medical or surgical treatment (especially if vision is affected), we coordinate with neurologists/ophthalmologists to ensure you’re covered end-to-end.
Left un-addressed, IHH can lead to long-term problems: worsening headaches, ongoing vision damage, reduced quality of life. Acting early gives you a better chance of reducing pressure, restoring function and avoiding complications.
If your headaches are recurring, causing vision or hearing issues, or you’ve been told “it’s just stress” but nothing’s changing let’s book a thorough assessment. Together we’ll explore what’s really going on, tailor a plan for you, and help you return to clearer, calmer days.
