Question 1

how long will it take for a mild concussion to heal and what can i do to get rid of the headaches?

Accepted Answer

Should not take long: Usually symptoms of an uncomplicated midl concussion resolve within weeks ot a month, though it is possible some more subtle findings could linger slightly longer.  When symptomss persist or get worse, its time to go back to a doctor.  Managing headaches may really depend on type of headache and what is triggering it.  So the answer really depends on assessment.

Question 2

is it true what people are telling me that by using less pillows i can get rid of the neck pain? i tried it last night and i hardly feel it, once that heals up will i also get rid of the headaches ive had? nothing shows on mri's, so, is that next?

Accepted Answer

: If a person commonly sleeps on their back, any pillow that causes their neck to arch upward is bound to cause neck pain and headaches. Since you have tried sleeping with less pillows, your neck is probably more straight and the neck pain and headaches will typically go away within a week or two.

Question 3

can cysts on your forehead cause headaches? i have a lump on my forehead and the pain is in that area. when i see a dermo even if its a cyst, will they take it out to get rid of the headaches? ive had mri's show up nothing, so will they do that?

Accepted Answer

: Cyst may be causing the headache, but there are so many causes of headache that it is not feasible to sure. Hopefully removing the cyst will help.
For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.

Question 4

can cysts on foreheads cause constant headaches, ive had them for over a yr and nothing shows on mri's, seeing a dermo in about 2 wks, can they take the cyst out so i can get rid of the headaches?have a lump on my forehead, wanted a dermo to check it?

Accepted Answer

: A lump on the forehead is likely to be a sebaceous cyst and a dermatologist is appropriate doctor to see. It is not feasible to comment on your concern about a brain tumor, without examining you.
Wish you good health!
