"Just a headache"..: ..is a term we use after we rule out anything serious, debilitating, chronic and/or recurrent. A headache that "feels like someone is stabbing my head" is, by definition. debilitating. Migraine & sinus problems are, statistically, the most likely cause. You can take an aspirin but don't wait until morning to see a doctor. Get care now! Best wishes. Dr. A.

Right eye pain: JoshuaL ~ this "severe" pain in eyeball could he the manifestation on "ocular migraine" . Its probably better to attend an ER and have the doc look at your eyes through a slit lamp to make sure there is no inflammation there, ( iritis, conjunctivitis) and if all normal he can treat you for ocular migraine there thanks

Best to See MD: Headaches can cause different symptoms in different people. Be sure to see your MD to get a neurologic exam if headaches are new, wake you from sleep or only on 1 side. See Eyedoc2020@blogspot.com "Headache Diet" for possible solutions to help.
