What to do if i have a massive headache from water intoxication at the back of my head and its continual for days is that normal ?

Very common: Were you treated for water intoxication? Have you continued to ingest excessive amounts of water, and do you have a kidney function problem? Headache is a common symptom, and can persist for many days. You should get in touch with whoever treated you for this. If you were not treated, you need to see your doctor to get a medical checkup, including electrolyte panel. I would use tylenol (acetaminophen) or Motrin

Drank 4l of water in approx. 1,5 hrs, plus two glasses of wine. Four hours later no headache, but light headed. Is water intoxication still an option?
