What causes frontal lobe headaches?

Eye strain, tension and sinus problems can cause pain in the frontal lobe, according to MajorDiseases.com. Determining what is the cause will make it easier to fix the issue.

Sinus infections and sinusitis can cause pressure to build and cause a frontal lobe headache. Rinsing the nasal cavity can relieve the pain. Reading and using the computer can also cause a headache if the eyes are straining to see the words. Taking a break or getting glasses if needed will help the pain. Tension is another known cause. No matter the reason for the pain, taking a pain reliever such as ibuprofen may fix or lessen the symptoms.
