What Causes Headaches And Dizziness?

Primary Stabbing headache
Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir,
I would like to know since when are you taking Lexapro and Wellbutrin?
Here my first possibility:
I understand your concern and feel sorry for the pain you are going through. By the symptoms you mentioned, I could think of Primary Stabbing headache (aka Ice pick headache) as a provisional diagnosis. Other differentials can be Migraine or Cluster headache.
Primary stabbing headache is a condition in which a patient gets single or a series of stabs felt in the orbital region (around or behind your eye), temporal area, or parietal area of the head. This does not need any provocation such as cough or straining or exercise.
This generally requires no scans or tests because reason of it is still unknown. I would suggest you to avoid excessive stress stay hydrated and have proper sleep cycle. You can use indomethacin or OTC pain killers if it is too much.
If it become a consistent problem later, then you should visit a doctor o neurologist and get evaluated.
Hope I answered your query. Feel free to ask more.
Dr.Moumita Chakraborty
