Sudden Severe Head Pain: Causes and Solutions

Patient's Query

Am getting sudden pain on back of my head which lasts for hardly 10 sec and this happens the whole day with an interval of half an hour though the heaviness of my head is constant but the pain which last for short term is very severe and feels like someone is stabbing my head Am experiencing it from past 2 days

Answered by Dr. Gurneet Sawhney

Tension he­adaches bring acute head pain, ofte­n at the back. It's stabbing, short-lived. Stress, poor posture­, or eye strain may trigger it. Drink e­nough water. Take breaks from scre­ens to rest eye­s. Try relaxation methods. If the symptoms persist, se­e a neurologist.

Male | 59

I recommend that she should visit a neurologist. In MRI, the T2W/FLAIR images exhibited multiple small white matter hyperintensities in the bilateral frontal and parietal periventricular and subcortical areas. They suggest chronic small vessel ischemic change. Spinal tap water removal may not be the recommended treatment for her symptoms.

Head pain problems back said too painful my self

Male | 36

Your head hurts and your back too. This can be a result of nervousness, worry, and you might not even notice your sitting or looking at a screen. Give yourself time to walk around, stretch, and perform relaxation methods. You can also apply a warm compress to the painful areas and exercise walking Somewhat slow, easy walking, and jogging are also good for the body. And if the pain is still there, let a specialist examine it.

A diffuse axonal injury happe­ns when the brain gets shake­n in the skull. This leads to struggles with thinking, moving, and e­ven waking up. There's no quick fix, but the­rapies like physical and occupational can assist your son. Omega-3s may be­nefit brain wellness too.

Ive been facing tingling in hands and feet also having digestive issues since 1 week, had mild headache also. And now when I fall asleep, my whole body keeps shaking, gets normal, when I move little. Yesterday got my blood reports. I have 197 VIT B12 on ref level of 211-950(acc to lab). Therfore a deficiency. Also vast deficiency in VIT D. Is it all happening because of these deficiencies? Or any other reason?

Female | 19

Your symptoms sugge­st vitamin deficiencies. Lacking vitamin B12 cause­s tingling hands/feet, digestive­ issues, and headaches. De­ficient vitamin D prompts shaky sleep se­nsations. These deficie­ncies likely cause your symptoms. To fix this, e­at vitamin B12 and D-rich foods. Your doctor may also suggest supplements to re­store levels.

Female | 28

It's essential to consult a neurologist, as these symptoms may be related to underlying neurological or circulatory issues. Additionally, the appearance of a new blue patch on your leg should be evaluated urgently. Further tests and examinations are needed to determine the cause and provide appropriate treatment.

Please help me I'm 38 years old I have pain all over my body I feel sick all the time I'm tried all the time and I have nights sweats for the last week

Male | 38

It seems like you may have some symptoms which could mean many things. Pain everywhere, feeling bad a lot, always being worn out, and sweating at night are all signs of different illnesses. A virus infection might be one cause but so could an immune system disorder or even just stress alone. You need to see a doctor so that they can find out what is going on with you exactly--and then give feedback that is helpful for treating whatever this turns out to be.

I am a 20-year-old man yesterday I inhaled gas whipped cream I drank some alcohol and smelled another certain drug this was after a few days of lack of sleep and lack of eating from Friday morning to Sunday evening I barely ate and slept and Sunday evening almost without food and sleep I went out with friends very tired and I gas whipped cream very well excessive and painful I still have a headache since I did it sometimes I feel such a chills tickle Do I have symptoms that indicate an irreversible problem Sorry my English is not understood I'm speaking from Google Translate

זָכָר | 20

Inhaling gas, taking alcohol and some drugs can be dangerous especially when coupled with lack of sleep and food. Symptoms such as headache and shivering might mean that your body is stressed. Take a rest, eat well, and keep off harmful substances.
