What Causes A Left Sided Headache?

I m 14 and I wear my hair in a bun everyday but like a week ago when I got out of the pool from L.A fitness I tried putting my hair back up and I noticed my head was hurting more to the left said to my head and when I put my finger there to soothe the pain I felt a dint or dimple so when I got home I took my hair out and the dimple left and and I tried to push my hair together lightly and and it wasn t in a full ponytail and I could feel the dimple forming again and it been going on for about a week. Do you know what s going on?

Hello,

The symptoms are consistent with common causes like a migraine or a tension headache, as a first line management, you can try analgesics like aceclofenac or tramadol for pain relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
