What Causes Shooting Pain Behind Left Eye?

I have been having a nasty pressure headache right behind my left eye. The pain wraps around my head and is mild or non existent by the time it reaches my right eye. My left eye also has been having blood in the goo and in the tears. It has also been blacking out. It s not constant, but it keeps coming back. Any thoughts as to wht it might be?

Hello,
Thank you for your question and welcome to Health Care Magic. I read your query and I understand your concern and the anguish that you are having.

I think that you have a migraine which causes the pain behind the eye. A migraine will start based on a trigger factors. This is causing the issue that you are having. A few of the trigger factors can be:
Fevers
Diseases
Anemia
Chronic disease
Sunlight
Loud sounds

I think that you can manage this by avoiding the trigger factor once you identify the trigger factor. Here are a few things you can try:
Drink lots of water
Take tablet Paracetamol 500 2 times a day to help you
Inhale steam to clear the nasal passages

Follow up after 5 days. All the best.
Hope this helps you. Feel free to clarify further.
