Was wondering if anyone could help me, i have had a headache for the last 3-4 days, its not a terrible pain but a constant ache just above my forehead, its there not long after i wake up and tablets are not working, I always think the worst and this is really getting to me, its all i can think about as i never ever get headaches, im so worried its someting serious, it just wont go away
I have a 10 month old baby and its really hard feeling like this and trying to be on top form,
thanks

Hi,
I had exactly the same sort of headache a couple of weeks ago that just did not go away...but eventually it went and now it's fine. I think it was just a virus and I am sure thats the same for you.:)

Honey don't panic, headaches are the most common complaint of the average person. The headache you are describing are the classic tension/migraine headache.
You need to drink plenty of water and get some rest and get of the computer which will only increase the pain further.

I don't know what you have taken for it but a combination of ibuprofen, codeine & paracetamol are very good for tension headaches.

I used to get them &they lasted weeks sometimes as i stressed about them so much. Honey its not life threatening just more pain & an annoyance xx
