Question Posted Wednesday February 8 2006, 7:44 pm
every now and then, I get these truly awful headaches that dont go away for a few days. Theyre really annoying becuase they interrupt my whole life...I cant do anything becuase even the slightest noise makes my head pound and bright lights make my eyes sting. Could it have anything to do with the computer? and is there anything I could do (besides aspirin or any medication) to make them stop happening or make them less intense? thanks so much ♥

There could be a serious reason for the headaches and then again it could be minor. However, your health and life is not worth gambling--and playing the guessing game.

I have them too and when I get them, the computer doesn't make them any worse but mine only last for a couple of hours to 1-2 days. Never longer. Yours seem more intense so the computer might make them worse but they don't start them. Big changes in weather trigger my headaches. Like rin one hour and bright sunshine the next will give me a huge migraine. The best thing to do is to sleep it off. Being in a cool room usually helps me out. Lights and sound always make my head feel like it's about to explode to. Maybe you should just see your docter. Benedryl works really good for headaches, too.

xomegaroni answered Wednesday February 8 2006, 7:57 pm: it sounds like migrains. you should go to your family doctor & schedule an appointment. he/she will probably ask you a bunch of questions so make sure you know when they happen etc etc. try recording them. if he/she thinks it's migrain related er whatever it is, they'll give you mediciation. definately go to your doctor. other things you can do is staying in the dark while it's happening & use a hot cloth on your forehead. sometimes its the computer. it kind've depends on the person, but that could be a possibility.
