I started having a bad headache after finding out some terrible new about my family and drank way too much that night. The headache has stayed with me now for three days, and is much pressure in my head and even in my throat. It is in the top part of my neck, and is the same pressure as in my head. I kept me awake last night, and goes away for only a few minutes then returns throughout the day. It is not intolerable, but very strange and seems to be getting worse. And since it started after hearing this bad news, it makes me wonder. My family is a very stressful deal for me in my life and I think the two are correlated. can anyone help?
Seek social supports from other family members and friends. Go get a relaxation massage. Take over the counter analgesics for your headache. Regular exercise can help reduce stress and alleviate your symptoms.
