I strongly suggest you see a doctor. Headaches can be symptomatic of many things and a doctor should be able to at least eliminate some of the causes and give you some advice. Good luck and get it checked!

I hope it's just a headache, or migraine... (well, I don't really because they're horrible)
I just wanted to warn you that back in the summer (end of June) I had a constant headache for 3 days... On day 3, by the evening it turned out to be meningitis- I was hospitalised for 2 weeks, thank god I have a child, that was the only reason I knew the signs... The only thing I didn't have was the rash..
Don't mean to scare you just be very careful.
If it is a migraine then the doctor can sort you out tablets for it,
Hope you feel better soon

you would know it if you had a migraine
sensitivity to light
severe pain
unable to concentrate
if it is what you have see your dr and they can give you a migraine medicine - however seeing how you are taking a strong pain killer you shouldnt be having any pain at all
I am prone to both headaches and migraines but when I was taking Darvocet (pain killers for the blood clots I had) I didnt have any headaches or migraines at all
maybe you should consult a nuerologist

it could be migraines or it could be eye strain. go to a Dr. have you eyes checked and if that does not resolve the problem or appear to be the problem go see a Dr. there are medications that can help or there are other things that cause headaches that are serious. I had a continual headache and after a visit to the eye Dr. and that was not determined to be a problem they did a MRI to make sure the lining between the scull and brain was not inflamed as that or a tumor can be fatal.

Migraines can be caused by a litany of triggers. It could be anything from certain foods to blood pressure or even a fluctuation in hormones. It could also be a sinus infection.
You really should see your doctor to find the source. Just trying to manage the symptoms could really be dangerous if you don't know the cause.
See your doctor and hope you feel better!

Junk food, lack of water, stress, migraine, and some women on their periods are all reasons for headaches. Your doctor will be able to help providing you tell him everything. Lack of water in your system caused by drinking diuretic drinks can cause head pain. Not to be confused with headaches. Coffee and strong tea are classed as diuretic drinks. They expel the nice clear water from your body just as alcohol does. You can usually tell by the colour of your wee if that is the case with tea and coffee. Lastly some people are just prone to headaches. Pain management is helpful in their case. I wish you lluck.

I suffered dull headaches for years till I found out chocolate was the problem.I loved it and had some everyday till someone told me to try cutting out chocolate and cheese.I'm ok with cheese but if I eat choc. I have a headache.I don't miss it at all now and it's great to be free of headaches.Try keeping a check on what you eat as different foods affect different people.Don't take painkillers as they don't help headaches better with paracetamol.Maybe your doc. can help.I hope you'll soon feel better, good luck.

Sometimes pain medicine can help add to headache. It is best to go to the doctors and try to stay away from bright lights. Coca cola can help a headache.

Go and have your eyes checked. It sounds like the internal pressure of your eyes is high but I'm not sure, not being a doctor. You must seek medical advice as soon as possible.

I don't know about a migraine, but it sounds like something causing a vasal dialation of some sort. I suggest you go see a neurologist.
