Question 1

why do i get headaches above my left eye & they never go away?

Accepted Answer

Need more info: First, forget right or left because no disease process is always on left side of the head in all patients. If a pain is always (not 99%) but always on the same side be very concerned about a structural problems which can include many local diseases such as sinusitis, bone infection, brain tumors, aneurysms, arteriovenous malformation & even migraine (but note 100% unilaterality in migraine is rare.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

You need to see a ne: A neurologist should evaluate you for the cause of your headaches. More than likely you have migraine which causes severe unilateral( one half of the head) headaches. There are good mnedicines which can treat this headaches before it becomes severe. A nurologist could give you a triptan medicine. For now try  to find a combo of 2 or 3 medicines, one of them being caffeine(plus aspririn +tylenol).

Question 8

why does my left eye get a red line through it followed by a migraine headache?

Accepted Answer

Migraines: Some migraines are associated with visual auras. This is very common.  If the red one is in your visual field then you are having a migraine that involves the visual part of the brain.  If the red line is in your eye and the headaches on the same side you may be having cluster headaches.  Both are a form of vascular  headaches.

Question 9

why do i get headaches in the back lower side of my head? along with left eye vision problems?

Accepted Answer

Possibly migraine : Headache with visual disturbance is likely migrainous related at your age. A comprehensive eye exam will help to reassure that the eyes are healthy and not the cause of the symptoms. As far as your headaches, if the frequency and severity do not allow for a reasonably functional life, I recommend that you see your primary care doctor to assess &amp; treat.

Accepted Answer

Yes: Always pays to be better safe than sorry. All may be due to migraine symptoms, but best to get checked.
