What Causes Severe Headache With Ear Pressure And Body Aches?
My daughter has a headache that has a sharp pain approximately every 30 seconds and then fades but has constant pressure. It is accompanied with stiff neck pain on one side of her jaw/face, pressure on her ear, body aches and chills. It started yesterday morning and the pain subsides with 2 advil. She is 18 and in good health.
Judging from your description the first diagnosis to be considered would be an ear infection, which would explain those unilateral headaches with chills.
So while she can continue to take Advil as needed I suggest she is seen by an ENT specialist because if the diagnosis is confirmed antibiotic treatment might be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
