Default Cluster Headaches

Anyone suffer from them? I have started getting headaches everyday between 7pm and 10pm. I have never had a headache so bad in years and now i get them everyday. Possible that it has something to do with my car accident?

Its been a month since the accident and these headaches have been around for about 3 weeks. Should i go to the hospital and get a head scan?

Cheers Guys

Hey Mark

I'm getting physio at the moment. Its slowly making me better but i do understand that i have to complete the treatment to get fully recovered (i hope).

My neck still gets tense and i find it difficult keeping my head held up. But the Physio is slowly taking effect. The only thing where it hasn't helped is my back. Always in agony.

Did you get it checked out at hospital or doctors, I would go back if you did and explain as it is important.

If you're getting bad headaches get it checked out ASAP.

I was in hospital and off work with severe head pains back end of last year and cluster head aches was mentioned to me by my doc as a possible cause, she gave me info on these but its in the bed room with my lass and the bairn asleep upstairs or I would have got it. I might be wrong but I think I remember stress/anxity being a cause of them. I would go to your docs and let her know straight away and get it checked out nowt worse than a banging heed mate.
