Flu Symptoms, Headaches, Indentation Behind Head, Severe Migraines. Related Symptoms?

Just getting over a 3-4 day bout with what I think was the flu . Each day I ve had varrying symptoms, but mostly its been headaches . Yesterday it was a very strong migraine , as I was touching my head, I noticed an indentation on the top back of my head that I had never noticed before. Suffering from more migraines today. Could these things be related, or what could it be?

Hello,

Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.

I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.

Most probably it may not be related. The indentation over head may have been present since long and you might have noticed it only when the problem arised. If the headaches has started with the flue then most probably the headaches might be due to the general inflammatory response and not due to migraine. You should take plenty of rest and good amount of water. Flue will settle down by self and if it persists then you should get it checked.

Hope I am able to answer your concerns.

If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
