Constant Headache On The Left Side. Cystic Painful Acne On The Left Side Of Forehead.. Are They Related?

I have had a headache on the left side for almost 2 weeks almost without a break. And for over 1 week, I've had one large area of cystic acne on the left side of my forehead which is very painful. I've never had any cystic acne issues in the past, nor any history of continuous headaches. I usually get 1 bad migraine per year or so, which lasts a few hours at most. These more recent headaches are different from those. Could these headaches and the cystic pimples be related possibly?

Hello
Cystic pimples or any type of acnes are painless and usually does not cause head ache or any sort of pain

Hence your headache can be because of migraine or some other common causes like sinusitis.
Hence do consult your physician for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you.
