Headache, Pains When Not Stationary. What Could It Be, Suggestions?
Hello,
I get these headaches and it stays for 3-4 days. The headaches are in different region sometimes entire right or entire left or back of the head and keeps shifting. I figured it might be eye related as even my eye used to hurt so, I went for eye check up. I use prescription glasses now ( cylindrical power of -0.5 and -1.00). Although I use the glasses now my headache hasn't changed its pattern. It keeps aching like a pulse and it aches more when I move my head than when I keep it stationary. I'm confused.

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
I understand your concern
Let me tell you that headache can be due to many causes and it can be due to migraine, tension headache, brain tumor/infection/bleed etc. I will request you to get evaluated by a neurologist who will examine you and help you through evaluation including a brain scan if needed. I feel that you have migraine headache and you will improve with anti-migraine medications. Your doctor will guide you.
Best wishes
