My 60 year old mom has had a severe headache for 4 days, in just one area - abover her ear - what could it be?

Question

She does not have a history of headaches. She has an appointment with her doctor on Thursday (first available). Motrin and Excedrin seem to dull the pain, but she describes it as sharp, stabbing, and just above her right ear.

Does this warrant a visit to the ER?

Answer 1

If you are taking drugs pl avoid.
Pain killer meds never kill the pain; we loose the sense of pain and don't feel the pain for some time. During this period many times our body treats the pain and credit goes to meds; otherwise disease becomes chronic.
There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, WORRY, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation; drugs, TV, computer, addiction,
Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment.
I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.

Avoid late sleeping if possible; worry, spicy foods, sour fruits, stale bakery foods and alcohole.
Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help you.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it isvery strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.
