Daily headaches.....again...

Question:

I am a 17 year old male with good overall health and i have been having headaches every day all day for about 5 days straight now. Now this has happened before during the winter and i went to the doctor and he said it was stress but told me to go and get a CT scan done anyways just to make sure it wasnt anything serious. i did that and everything was normal on the CT scan and my headache went away on its own a little while later. But now i have a headahce again and am worried about it again, do u think it is just stress b/c my CT scan results came back normal before....

Answers:
probably is stress -- or a misaligned neck ---- see a reputable chiropractor and or a massage therepist!

Whenever a headache strikes drink lots of water .Lack of oxygen may have lead to your headache. Place a few ice-cubes in a polythene bag, and apply this on the forehead and temples. Check out http://useinfo-headache.blogspot.com/... for more info

Wisdom teeth that haven't been removed could be the problem, but your 17 and probably have had your wisdom teeth removed.

Could be any number of things causing your problem. I would see your doctor again, ask him if there are any other tests that could be run on you to see if there is some other underlying problem. Also, allergies can be a big proponent of headaches, so can withdrawl from certain stimulants like caffine. I'd talk to your doctor though, and if they don't give you an answer you like, ask to be referred to a specialist.

Have you been checked for scoliosis? I had really bad daily headaches and went to a neurologist (might try there too), but no luck. Then I went to a chiropractor. He said I had scoliosis that was making my upper back/neck twist. He started doing body adjustments on me along with electro massages, and they helped tremendously. Even had an X-ray done to make sure. It could be something else, but you might want to check just in case.

I have bad headaches and have had them for the past 6 months. I am currently working with a neurologist to find a solution. But I also have vertigo with my head aches and I am only 22. I would consider seeing a neurologist if you aren't already.

see a doctor who is a specialist in migraines[have no idea how you spell that :] ] good luck!
