Headache, Sore eyes?!
Question: Headache, Sore eyes!?
I am 17 nearly 18!.
I have a sore head and have had one on andoff for a few days, maybe since wednesday or so last week!.
It was a strange sort of pain, wasnt a usual headache it was a sort of needle pain and a knife going through my head, sharp pains!. It is gone a little but it keeps coming back!.
Its mainly in the middle of my head and shooting pains behind my left eye!.
I dont wear glasses so maybe i should get my eyes checked!?
At the weekend it actually felt like someone had put a knife through the top of my head but the pain softly went away but it hurt!. I worry loads about tumours etc expecially since this headache just appeared and hasnt really left!.
Any advice would be greatfully accepted!
Anyone has this too!?
Thanks for your help!

It would be worth getting an eye test!. Not only do they check your vision but they also check the health of your eyes!. They use a light to look into the back of the eye which will show up anything like a tumour as this will be pressing on the optic nerve!. It is highly unlikely you have a tumour but if you are anything like me, every time I get a headache I think it's a tumour! If it continues go to your GP!. A pain around one side of the head during a headache is a classic sign of a migraine!. Keep a headache diary so when you go the docs you can give them specific information on your pain!. I get lot's of headaches - they sometimes last for a week!Www@Answer-Health@Com
I doubt this is caused by eye problems!.!.!.but get them checked just in case!. It is possible that it could be the beginning of the symptoms caused by measles!. Do you get a strong intolerance to light!? If so, remain in dark place and seek urgent medical advice, as you may go blind!.
It could be brain-related and I advise you not to panic but to calmly seek medical advice as soon as possible!.

If you can feel any pressure in your head or like pressing against your nose I think you should get it checked out!. Don't stress about it too much but stuff like this can seem minor sometimes and you can find that it is actually something quite serious (e!.g tumor)!. This happened to someone I know!.
On the other hand it is probably something minor!. Maybe you have been straining your eyes too much or concentrating hard!.

There are numerous possible causes - your eyes, stress and tension headaches, migraine, fibrositis or arthritis from your neck and shoulders (usually someone older gets this!. There are of course more serious possibilities but you cannot know which it is until you go to a doctor and get them eliminated one by one!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
