Suggest Treatment For Severe Headache

I ve been waking up with a frontal lobe headache for more than a few days. Sometimes really bad and other times just dull. Right now I m at work, I teach, and my headache has become worse. Tolerable, but worse than in the morning. I take Excedrin, because Advil, Motrin, Tylenol do not work for me.

Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, I would suggest that you should get refraction of your eyes done by an Ophthalmologist. Refractive error in eyes is a common cause of frontal headache.
Other investigations which may be helpful are :-
1. X-Ray PNS.
2. CT scan of head.
3. Blood pressure monitoring.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
