so for the past week i have had a mild headache, ear pain and naseua. Im really worried this is serious. Could it be a sign of a tumour or anyrism (sp)

I went to the doc who just gave me drops for my ears incase of congestion behind the ears but can that really cause headache with a sickness feeling?

    Tumours and anureysm's are very rare especially in the young and as you say it's a mild headache.

    Anything with the ears can can cause nausea, headache or vertigo/loss of balance.

    Best cure is probably fresh air and a long walk in the wide open space of your picture but keep well hydrated.

    Is your headache really bad, is it so bad that you want to stay lying down and with no noise, could your sinuses be blocked? Try closing one nostril and breathing in, do the same with the other one, if either or both can't allow the air into your lungs with your mouth closed its a good indication of sinusitis which can cause pain in your face and a headache.  If your airways are open but the headache persists it may be a migraine.

    The other possibility Samantha is if it's not sinusitis, you could have vertigo, do you feel giddy, or lose your balance, are you double jointed?
