Headache behind left eyebrow? ?!
Question: Headache behind left eyebrow!? !?
I have this really painful headache located behind my left eyebrow!. I don't think it's a migraine bc the only thing that mellows the pain is when I look at a screen (computer or tv)!. It started midday when I was at work, I thought it was bc I was hungry but I ate and and drank a glass of water and it was still there!. I came home and took a 3 hour nap and it's still there!. Whenever I walk around the pain starts to move around and I can feel it on all sides of my head!. What can it be!? I'm starting to get that sick feeling in my mouth too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You need to see your doctor and have him run some tests to see if it is a sinus infection, deviated septum causing the infection, one-sided migraine headache, or something more serious!. NEVER keep suffering with any type of pain when it cannot be relieved by a pain reliever and then disappears!.!.!.!.!.see your doc!Www@Answer-Health@Com
It sounds like what I get too!. Its called a migraine headache!. I'd say the nausea is part of the migraine headache!. Painkillers don't usually work for me either!. Does the ibuprofen have codine (spelling!?) in it!? That may help to dull the pain!. If you keep getting these headaches you should go see a doctor just for a checkup!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

This really could be a migraine!. The persistence, the increase with movement, feeling sick, all suggest a migraine is possible!. If that's the case, some caffeine could provide some temporary relief!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It really does sond like migraine - I get these too and I'm diagnosed as a migraine sufferer - I can look at a computer screen when i have migraines and concentrating on something can distract you and give temporary relief!. migraine can start at any time of life - my partner just started getting them at 43 having never suffered before!. But could also be sinusitis, particularly as it's down your face too - although i get this with migraine sometimes!. Could also be neuralgia - see your GP if it doesn't go away!. I agree that naps can make it much worse, so sleep for as long as you can and drink lots of water - please be careful with caffeine as while it can help some migraine sufferers it can make others much worse - I can't take caffeine at all or i get a 5 day migraine! Other things perhaps worth avoiding are chocolate, citrus fruit/citric acid, tomatoes, and cheese - I can only eat cheese about once a week or I get a bad migraine!. Using codeine a lot can also give you very bad headaches when it wears off, so be careful with that! Good luck, migraine is a drag but it can be managed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
