Headaches. Why Does It Last For So Long?

For the last three days at the same time everyday I have been getting severe headaches I mean to the point where it feels like my head is going to explode especially when I do stuff. Nothing helps and it hurts so bad I can't stand talking to or listening to people. It comes on suddenly and lasts for hours I haven't hit my head on anything so what could this be??

Hello,
welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Headache is a very common problem. It can occur due to several reasons. I would like to consider multiple possibilities in your case in following hierarchy:
•     Migraine
•     High blood pressure
•     Infection of teeth/ear/nasal cavity
•     Visual problem
•     Stress and Anxiety disorder
•     Neurological problem: may need MRI brain

It is better to get yourself evaluated by general physician to rule out above causes and then seek consultation according to his recommendation. Till that time you can take analgesic to reduce pain.

Wish you good health and all the best.

Regards,

Hi friend,

Welcome to Health Care Magic



You have not stated your age, gender, personal habits, family history or co-morbidities

Nor have you given details of symptom, except severity

You should consult an Internist / if possible a Neurologist...

You may need MRI brain



Take care

Wishing speedy recovery

God bless

Good luck
