Ditto with other additions. Check out your posture. I have chronic neck/back problems which are made worse by my profession (hair). Stress also causes muscle tightening. Jaw clenching can cause pain in the temple/above the eye area. Hold your fingers around the temple and then clench your jaw.......you can feel the muscles tightening.

It's always good to get thoroughly checked out....like an elimination process. I also used to get a certain headache on the right side when I was ovulating and the day before my period. Never let me down. If you're female, or even male..at age 16 there are many hormonal changes.

Certain smells can trigger headaches, sunshine, not eating (hunger headache). I even get one from eating pork. Bleach and diesel give me an instant headache...feels like a knife being thrust into my head.

I've had headaches since I was 11...I'm now 49. Aspirin is the only med (demerol works good too...but not good availability!) over the counter that works for me. Anacin is awesome (with caffeine). I also see a chiropractor for neck/back adjustments. Neck pain can refer pain to the head.

I also want to add that if your headache happens at a certain time of the day.....drink a glass or two of water. when I was working fulltime, I always got one around 2:00. I'd chug half my bottle of water, and most times it diminished within 15 minutes. Dehydration is a definite cause of many headaches.

It's basically subjective....but there are many reasons why people get headaches. Many people, each suffer from different kinds of headaches and treat each one differently.

I hope you're able to get it resolved. Keeping a daily diary including time, activity, foods, where.....etc headaches happen, you may very well be able to figure it out.

Best to you,
