It is common to have an occasional headache. This can happen due to mental stress, lack of sleep, but if the headache is recurring or persistent, then ignoring it can be dangerous. This can be a symptom of many diseases in the body. In such a situation, persistent headache should not be ignored.
Dr. Daljeet Singh, former HOD of Neurosurgery Department at GB Pant Hospital, Delhi. It is said that headache is a common problem, but if it is happening daily then it is not a good sign. If the recurring headache is severe and vomiting is also occurring, then these can be signs of migraine. Apart from this, if there is a sudden severe headache, especially in the morning and it is more severe in the back part of the head, then it can also be a sign of high BP.
Headache can also occur in these serious diseases
Dr. Daljeet explains that headache can also be a symptom of many serious diseases. If there is difficulty in speaking along with headache, vomiting, blurred vision or weakness in any part of the body, then it can be a symptom of brain tumor. Apart from this, in many cases headache is also a sign of brain stroke. If symptoms like numbness of any part are seen along with headache, then do not take it lightly.
Dr. Daljeet says that headache is a common problem, but its continuous occurrence is not good for you. Never take such headache lightly. Keep in mind that if you are getting enough sleep and there is no mental stress, but headache still occurs, then you should consult a doctor. Do not be careless in this matter
