Head Ache with Nerve Pain on the head Posted: 01-17-08 13:27pm
Hi,
This is Harry. I have a friend of mine
who frequently gets headache, But a few
days before it so happened that when she
had severe headache, and I was massaging
her head(on the top of the head) and all
of sudden she had sheer pain, but a few
minutes later the pain was back to normal.
But after a couple of hours, we could see
a nerve passing on the head(where I was
massaging) was swollen and was paining
when we pressed it a little. After a rest
for a day, the swell had reduced to the
minimal. This incident happened a couple
of weeks before. But now when we press a
same nerve, it aches quite a bit, but
aches a lot when its pressed, during her
headache and the severity of the pain is
more. Could someone please tell me what
could have happened and how severe could
this issue be, and what could be done. I
am worried as its related to her head.
Please let me know the possible causes and
suggestions.
Thanks for all the information you could
give me...

Is this headache coming on gradually and
over several hours becoming unbearably
severe?
For how long is her headache attack
usually lasting?
Is she experiencing other symptoms along
with the headache?
