Can Headache And Face Flushes Be Connected To The Spleenomegally Due To A Teratoma ?

i have a teratoma in my spleen(17 cm) i found out about that umm 11 months ago. however it has been asymptomatic until now. i will get a sharp pain in my lower L-side near my ribs and then it will feel like it is spazing for about a min. also i have had headaches off and on for years. now my head has been hurting for four days and i feel my face getting flushed. it hurts where my skull connects to my spine. no (otc) meds really help. the headache radiates to my temples or the top of my head. i am a student at the moment and do not have insurance and can not afford to go to the dr. so what can i do? could the headache be connected to the spleenomegally due to a teratoma?

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The headache is no way related to your teratoma or spleen condition. The headache seems like migraine or cluster headache. You can take analgesics like Tramadol or Acetaminophen for headache. Avoid sleep deprivation and smoking, which tend to increase headache. If headache persist, better to consult a neurologist and get evaluated.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
