What Does Pain In The Head Indicate?
I have an area of me head that’s been hurting from about three week. It feels like I have blood stuck on one side! If I sleep on that side it super hurts the next day. Three weeks ago it felt like something popped, I thought it might have been the cyst over there so I had it removed. It came back benign but now the pain is worse. What could it be?

Hello,
Headache can be of different types and origins. Some functional headaches include tension headache, migraine headache, cluster headache. Or there may be organic reasons like benign or malignant lesion in the brain.
If the problem of headache is for more than 2-3 weeks, you need a full evaluation. I suggest you consult neurophysician. If require go for CT scan of the brain. Till then for symptomatic relief take tablet paracetamol eight hourly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
