Constant pressure type headaches for a month. about 8 migranes and 10 stabbing type pains. all on the left side of my head.should i be worried?

See HA specialist: There is an overlap in the triggers of migraine and tension headache and can be difficult to distinguish. Your family doctor can help you treat headaches, but you may need a headache specialist for more effective migraine and stubbing headache relief.
