A member asked:

What to do if i have headaches lasting for days at a time?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Breakup pattern: Can happen with a headache of any variety, but most often from migraine mechanisms. Prevention of future headaches may provide best intervention. See your doctor, and discuss why you have headaches and deal with underlying causation.
