Inside a....sorry about the persistent. headache...and the sore arm..but happy to hear the lack of other symptoms. Here's a bottom line as I see it: If the headache persists, see the MD. The Doc will of course be able to check you thouroughly, and hopefully relieve any concerns you might have.

Probably not. I was diagnosed with grade 4 malignancy in 2004. I had pounding head aches which almost made my knees buckle and also threw up several times in the morning. I was confused, used to drive through red light at the traffic signal. The head aches did not respond to any kind of over the counter medication. So, don't worry it is probably just the stress. Hope that helps.

Headache is a pain in the head, scalp or neck.
Headaches can be caused by minor problems
like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more serious reasons
like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can
have harmful side effects, so it is better to
modify your lifestyle. More information available at

I'm thinking you have some allergy issues going on. It is definitely the season and a lot of people are having allergy issues, the pollen is soooo thick in the air right now. If the headache gets worse, or doesn't go away, see your doc.

With the weather the way it has been it could be a Sinus Headache. Try a hot face cloth around your nose. Also some hot Chinese Mustard, will break up the congestion.

I would see a doctor ok??
Headaches could be from a number of things-
I'm not a professional, but if it has been six day it doesn't sound like it's ready to go away on it's own.
Not normal for your age- Good Luck!

sounds like a migraine to me but it also could be a pinched nerve, go and see a doctor.
