Headache

[Chloe34517]

My niece about an hour ago came up to me and squeezed my head with full force and it really hurt. Now I have a headache and I'm scared it's something serious like an aneurysm or bleeding :(

I think usually you'd have to have extremely severe trauma to your head for it to cause a blood clot or bleeding.

I'd see how it persists, though I think if you have a blood clot you'd be in agony and probably not even conscious. I'm not sure how blood clots work but I imagine you'd have more symptoms than a headache.

Take some painkillers in the meantime and try and relax and distract yourself :) stressing will probably make the headache worse (though I can't exactly talk - I've had just a twinge down my temple before and I thought it was a haemorrhage!)
