A member asked:

Headache for 5 days. nothing i've taken helps. what do i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a neurologist: You most likely have had headaches in the past. This would suggest that you have migraines. Only this one has lasted for 5 days and may even last loner in the absence of proper medication. See a neurologist.
