I have migraines and also occasional headaches on the top of my head, and for me, they aren't the same thing - the migraines cause all sorts of things, but they never last more than 4 hours. The doc says the ones on the top of my head are tension headaches. The tensions headaches aren't as intense as migraines, but they last a lot longer - usually several days, with a little bit of a break in the morning when I first wake up. I get the best relief from going to a chiropractor or massage therapist for the tension headaches. Nothing helps with the migraines. MOre info at the link:

Is called a caput headache. Like a skull cap. Migraine Syndrome involves more than one nerve.But a headache for 4 days is a bit much.. is the usual length of a migraine.
Would suggest visiting a doctor of Chiropractic and getting some relief from this highly inflammatory condition. Before it involves more of the cranial nerves and develops into a migraine.

I think you should definetly talk to your doctor about the migraines so they can determine what type they are and if you require and medication/treatment.
Yes migrains/head aches can definetly last days and can be at the top of the head.
please discuss with a doctor.

Yes, it can be.
Instead of meds you should think of Alternatives.
There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases like RA, Back ache, earache etc. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, WORRY, sadness, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation; drug side effects, stress, bad smell, TV & COMPUTER SOMETIMES,
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.
Pain killers don't treat the pain but we loose the sense of pain for some time; in that duration our body itself treats sometime and credit goes to meds.
These useless drugs have enormous power to create hazardous side effects like liver/kidney failure, ulcer, acidity adn lot others.
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 if cough is not there.
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 is very strong.
Pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds!

I agree w/ the others, see a doc. If it is a migraine, you'll most likely be prescribed a Triptan drug.
goodluck
