What Causes Headache While Sleeping After Mastoidectomy?

I had a mastoidectomy 3 wks ago. I am having headaches mostly when sleeping. I have facial and roof of mouth pain during the day. I took prednisone for about 5 wks prior to surgery. Are the ha s related to surgery, prednisone withdrawl, or something else?

Thank you for choosing HCM

It seems that you have an infection which is causing the issue in you. There is a chance that the surgery has caused this infection to occur as a post op complication.

See a Doctor as soon as possible so that you can get antibiotics to help you. All the best.
Hope this helps you
