What Causes Headache?
My head hurts at really infrequent times. I had this same headache at the same spot a couple of months ago. Then it disappeared. I had it again a week ago. It's always at the back of my head and it feels like there's a lot of pressure on it. What is this?

Hello,
A headache can be of many reasons. The most common being migraine. Other causes can be cluster headaches, stress headaches etcetera. If headaches are too frequent need to go to a general practitioner for history and examination to come to a diagnosis. Usually, no preliminary scans are required. Graded analgesia was given for treatment and is easily control. Lifestyle modification is also advising like decreasing tea or coffee or alcohol and smoking whichever can be triggering factors.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
