Internal Jugular Vein Compression and Intracranial Hypertension - Symptoms, Causes, & Testing

Ross Hauser, MD discusses some of the common symptoms and conditions associated with intracranial hypertension from internal jugular vein compression, as well as methods we use to determine if this is likely what is causing a patient's symptoms. We see many patients with intracranial hypertension who come to our center because they have a constellation of symptoms like head pressure, brain fog, eye pain, glaucoma, vision problems, and many others that indicate the root cause may involve their internal jugular vein being compressed in the upper cervical spine.
