Hi, as you may be aware ive been suffering from a headache for 5 weeks now. After numerous visits to the doctors and advice from lovely people on here ive finally started to accept that its a tension headache. Ive been relaxing as much as possible and when ive started to worry and feel a panic attack coming on ive done something to destract myself, since ive been doing this it hasnt been as intense. Whats really bothering me though is that my left temple is very painful, if i touch it i get a shooting pain and my headache gets alot worse. Can tension headaches cause this or is it more likely to be sinusitis or something like that ? My doctor thought it was my sinuses when i started with the headache and i had antibiotics and a nose spray but then the pain moved to the back and sides of my head so he thought it was a tension headache. Thanks in advance for any replies.
