Question:
Constant headache is it because of co-codamol??? please help?
when i was 12 i got diagnosed with migraine headaches they went away and i would have them occasional rather than everyday. im 19 now and for the past year i have been having headaches that can last up to two weeks at a time i have no sickness dizziness or anything like that. last year i had a miscarriage and for the pain was prescribed co-codamol . my headaches have come back i can have spells where i have no headaches for ages but other times i can have headaches that last all day long and for days after even weeks . sometimes it feels like my head is very tight and light headed and have a achy neck. so i started taking more and more co-codamol pills taking the max amount a day. i wouldnt have a headache but if i didnt take the pills for 1 day my headaches would come back . do you think my headaches are related to taking the co-codamol so much on the box it says that taking co-codamol for a long period of time can get you addicted aswell as making headaches worse . thanks 4 answers
Answers:
yes, it's possible the medicine can increase your headaches. You might want to try taking a few less every day and see if this helps. You should see your medical doctor and get a checkup in case there is some other problem causing the headaches.
Chiropractors can also be very helpful for people with headaches. I recommend you see one and get a treatment. In time you may be able to live without medication.
