A member asked:

My daughter is 7 and she has had a really bad headache since friday. it even woke up her up last night from being asleep. what could it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Headache : Headaches are a bit unusual in a otherwise healthy 7 year old. I assume you have tried pain relievers and it persists. I rink with nighttime headaches my concern is higher and I would suggest you go to the doctor and get a thorough exam and consider a c-t scan.
