A member asked:
Could head actually pop from extreme headache that will go for hours?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely not: You skull (head) is made of bone and is very unlikely to pop from internal pressure. With that being said, if someone has an extreme headache, it is concerning. Some warning signs that a headache may be more than a usual headache include new headaches, or ones that are worse or different than headaches you normally get.
