A member asked:

Head killing me for 4 hours now what can i have for the pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends on cause: You may just have a migraine or tension headache. There are also more serious causes of a serious headache such as a head bleed, an infection called meningitis or encephalitis, or other causes. If this is a new symptom, I would recommend first being evaluated by a healthcare provider.
