Q: I am suffering headaches frequently throughout the day.

They come and go and are severe in onset. They last anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour and are located on the right side of my head. They are located behind my eye, behind my head and come around under my jaw. Any idea what these could be sourced by? I had periodic headaches in the past, but nothing this severe or consistent. Would appreciate your input on this.And please help me for some treatment for this.. Thanks, ERC

erc,

Headaches lasting for that period of time and occurring multiple times a day may be cluster headaches. For some information about them, take a look at Cluster Headaches - The Basics.

 

If these are cluster headaches, sumatriptan injections and inhaled oxygen are common treatments when they occur, and there are many options to be tried for control and prevention. What you need at this point is to see a doctor for diagnosis and recommendation of specific treatment. While I can share information, nobody can diagnose via the Internet.

 

Please check in with your doctor and let me know how things go?

 

Welcome again,

Teri
