What Causes Strong Headache Inspite Of Taking Advil?
Hi! I just had a very strong headache in the back of my head which spread to the top. I don t usually get headaches unless I get exhausted after a very busy day, so this one was very weird and sudden pain. I couldn t find a perfect position while lying on my bed and getting up gave me an extremely strong pain, which would not go away after taking 2 pills of Advil. Please help me with the diagnosis or any advice until I see my doctor. Thank you Kinga H.

Thanks for approaching HCM.
It could be migraine and other possibilities could be sinusitis and rarely a brain issue.
Notice the symptoms associated with headache like nausea ,giddiness,and sudden blurring of vision.
Sinusitis will be th most common cause ,try with steam inhalation and antiallergics.
Use paracetamol that will work for your pain.
Practice meditation.
Consult a neuro physician and plan for mri to rule out any calcification .
Hope this will help you.
