I keep getting loads of headaches/migraines. They really hurt.. and it's not like I'm too stressed or anything.. Is there anything I should/ should not eat?? When should I go to the doctor? .. like how long after getting them everyday? .. I've had one everyday for the past 4 days.

Go to the doctor now. Keep a record of possible triggers -- what you've eaten, other possible allergens you've been exposed to, sleep and stress levels. They may -- but may well not -- be triggered by food, but it is very individual, so it could be anything. Wheat, diary, chocolate/caffeine, lack of caffeine .. . .
IF true migranes, there are some medicines which can help, but they work best if you are able to identify the trigger and onset before it is a full-borne migrane.

I also suffer with migraines. I have found that the weather-a low pressure can cause the migraines as well as some foods. you need to see your doctor for a list of foods to maybe cut out and then maybe try adding them back one at a time. I also get migraines if my neck is stiff. have your sleeping habits changed? get a new pillow? These can also cause a headache. If you are having the headaches and this is new, See your doctor. 4 days in a row is not great. Also if you feel the migraine coming on, try Excedrin migraine. it really does work. I also have prescription medicine, but use the Excedrin when I can. Also if your neck is causing the headache, try Excedrin for tension headaches. this will sometimes stop the migraine from forming. But, See Your Doctor.

I was also suffering from migraines sometimes on a daily basis. You should see a doctor right away, it turned out that my migraines were caused from a herniated disc in my neck. Migraines can be caused by many other things. Try to avoid caffeine, chocolate, red wine, anything with peanuts in it. Bu definitely see a doctor.

Well, go for a manual one-time treatment called Atlasprofilax. The effect on the self-healing power is simply amazing, experienced it myself! :-)
Just - the treatment is available in California and Europe only, costing approx. 220 dollars. It's really worth travelling far.
Atlasprofilax really should cure your migraines within short notice.

you should drink a lot of water to make sure you're not dehydrated, you should also make sure you get too hungry as this can cause headaches. I'd say a week as I know people who get migranes for days and days on end

If you don't think it's stress-related, then definitely go to your doctor. It could be your eyes, it could be something you're eating, something in your environment, or it could be something else. Ask your doctor. That's what she/he is there for.
