How Can severe Headache Be Treated?
Hello, My husband has been having some problems lately. He has HBP and is currently on medication. However he still continues with bad headaches, at times just wants to sleep( having a hard time waking up). He recently lost feeling in his toes (not sure if this has anything to do with anything), but the other day complain of a sharp pain in the back of his head above his neck. He is 150 pounds 5 4 43 yrs old, use to be very active but has lost all interest.

Hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think you need to meet a neurologist urgently.
The symptoms of tingling numbness in limbs, with headache with neck pain are highly suggestive of a possible hemorrhage in the brain that may have been secondary to high blood pressure spike.
Please do meet the neurologist urgently for a CT Brain.
A good control of blood pressure is of course needed.
Best of luck, Dr Mittal
