Long term headaches

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hello, i am experiencing vomiting and a headache for 5 days now and it doesn’t get better. Pain is located in the back of a head, only left side is affected. I have never experienced such headaches before. But I have been very stressed for past 3 weeks. Maybe someone was experiencing something like this? I am very worried..

    Are they daily? Are they in the morning? Is the headache relieved with any medication? 

    If you are vomiting it could be a sign of intracranial pressure which could be a cyst or a tumor. An MRI or CT would need to be done to rule that out. I'd suggest seeing a Neurologist to have an assessment done or going to the ER if the symptoms are really bad. 

    Could also be pregnancy which would be a better diagnosis! :P
