Suggest Treatment For Nausea, Eye Pain And Persistent Headache
Question: For 3 days now, I have had a moderate headache above my left eye that runs front to back in my head. Feel it in back of my head when I turn my head. Also have a feeling of nausea, but not bad enough to vomit. Sinuses are stuffy. Left eye becomes itchy, watery and bloodshot multiple times throughout the day. OTC treatments are not helping with headache. Closing my left eye will eventually allow headache to subside (20 minutes or more) but comes back when I open eye again. Some tenderness if close left eyelid and touch. No tenderness if I do same with right eyelid.
