headache. I usually ever get headaches. Actually i havent head one in years.
But i have had one the last two days. I have taken advil and excedrine migrane (sp?) but nothing will get rid of this headache. Im pretty sure its not a migrane because ive had one before and it doesnt hurt likeone. Should i make an appointment with my doctor. Or wait it out?
Im gettting kind of worried as what is causing this.
thank you.

You can see the doctor if you want but he'd tell you some stuff that won't work and you'd waste your oney for nothing. Try avoiding cigerette smoke or perfum, food with alcohol, chocolate, and meat (the stuff they use to keep the colour of meat has something that makes you can't sleep sometimes and gives you head aches).
Nothing like something herbal calms head aches like tea or something cold but healthy like water. =) ]
It's probably a migraine, and you should just try to kind of wait it out, doctors can't do much about headaches
[trust me, I tried--I got squat]
It might be brought on by stress, just try to relax and sleep. ]
It still could be a migraine. Just a different one to what you've had before. I suffer from these and once, it lasted a week, so I went to the doctor and got prescribed pills.
It could also be what you're eating. For example, too much chocolate, citrus foods, sugar free products can bring on headaches. Make sure you're drinking plenty water to prevent dehydration.
You could also be suffering from cluster headaches, which apparently don't go away with over the counter painkillers.
You need to visit your doctor if:
your headaches are frequent or severe,
you have a severe headache which comes on suddenly, and is unlike anything you’ve had before,
you have a severe headache which comes on suddenly, accompanied by a very stiff neck, fever, nausea, vomiting, and confusion,
your headache follows an accident, especially if it involves a blow to your head, or
you also experience weakness, numbness, slurred speech, and/or confusion.
I hope you're feeling better soon.
and if you really are worried about it, a trip to the doctor would put you at ease. ]
Hey, erm make sure you are drinking plenty of water. If you are already doing that then you know it's not from dehydration. However, it's always better to be safe than sorry, so go and see your doctor .You aren't wasting their time if you go because that is what they are there for :) ]
