Is Sever Headache An Alcohol Withdrawal Symptom And How Long Can Alcohol Withdrawal Symptoms Last?

Help. I have alcoholism. I have 4 weeks without alcohol. I have a massive headache that I ve taken Tylenol, Naproxen and Tramadol to try to cease. Nothing is working. Is this alcohol withdrawal and how long can alcohol withdrawal symptoms last? I am also recently off Oxycodone/Acetaminophen for a broken ankle as well. Two weeks off that. I just took a klonopin for anxiety over this as well.
