What Causes Severe Headaches And Pain In The Neck?

I have been hVing bad headaches that turned into migraines for years but the past couple of years the pain has morphed to include pain shooting theoughout my head and neck and I get eye pain and pressure with it, a year or so ago my left eye felt like it had something in it and every since then the pain radiates from my left eye throughout my head and my left eyelid droops. The pain is usually there or I just don t feel right (light headed) but sometime the pain is excruciating and it can last for days. The migraine pills help temporarily but this has become a lifestyle, can anyone help? I ve been to sinus specialist, opthamaligist neurologist and had a CT scan, a MRI and X-rays and can t find the problem

Hi,

By your history and description, the possibility of an uncontrolled migraine is more likely. A migraine needs following lifestyle modifications.

1. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
2. Take sound sleep of 6-8 hours.
3. Avoid excessive sun exposure.
4. Drink plenty of fluids orally and keep yourself hydrated.
5. Avoid oily and spicy food. Avoid junk food.
6. Avoid excessive use of mobile and TVs.
7. Start propranolol and flunarizine combination at night time before going to sleep.

Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
