I've had a headache for 2 weeks straight. Nothing seems to help?

It’s probably stress related. Plagued with headaches from childhood to middle age I have had many different types: Migraines, Cluster, Allergic, Visual and mild. The following has helped me and others, I AM NOT A DOCTOR and I recommend that you make an appointment to see one and possibly consider counseling.

This is not a substitute for seeing a Doctor or a counselor. However, if you read this and follow the recommendations at the END you may be headache free before the appointment date(s). What your DDS, ER, MD or chiropractor may not tell you are that most headaches are STRESS related and they can be and usually are triggered by conditioning.

If you can identify the conditioned triggers of your headaches you can break the cycle of stress aggravating a headache and the headache causing more stress, fueling a very disabling negative feedback cycle. Break the cycle by: Reduce headache symptoms such as, nausea, vomiting and vertigo. Try inducing relaxation.

Teach your body to be more tolerant towards headache triggers. Try improving blood-circulation to your brain. Here are a few common types of headaches: SUBDURAL Hematoma headaches are caused by trauma.

If you have suffered a HEAD INJURY please stop reading this and go to the nearest hospital Emergency Room NOW. MIGRAINE headaches are usually one sided, more common in females and characterized by at least one of the following; sensitivity to light, pain behind one eye, throbbing brought on by bright lights, chocolate, cheese, red wine or menstrual cycle. You can also have a visual aura around lights and things may taste odd.

HYPERTENSION headaches are at the top and back of your head and throb. You usually wake up with this headache and after about 3 to 4 hours it subsides and may be caused by high blood pressure. You may need medicines to reduce your high blood pressure.

CLUSTER headaches can be seen in an adolescent to adult, more common in males, one sided, usually over temple or eye area, may have a blood shot eye(s), and may wake you up at night, runny nose, sweating, tearing of the eyes, usually worse in Spring or Fall (allergy season) and lasts 15 min. To 12 hrs. MUSCULAR TENSION headaches feels: band-like distribution around head - like wearing a very tight head band and is brought on by stress, tension, fatigue and work.

It sounds like you may have an infection, like the flu. The flu often starts with a very bad headache that refuses to go away. If your head feels hot, you probably have a fever as well.

If the headache continues to worsen, or other symptoms appear or worsen, you should probably see a doctor, just to be safe. If your neck becomes stiff and you can no longer bend your head downwards, or if you feel confused, or have vision problems, or trouble talking or thinking clearly, you need to see a doctor right away.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
