Help! pain in head!

[clapper3989]

hey all, it has started about 5 days ago.. i started my workout like usual one day.. and a pain started throbbing in the back of my head .. pulsing so bad i had to quit.. no otc meds will stop it.. it eases when i stop working out and becomes like a dullheadache nagging at me.. do u think i pulled something and its hitting a nerve? maybe from doing shrugs?.. anyways i went to a doc . and he was pretty stupid about it all and didnt do or say much and just gave me 800 mg ibproufen and some flexril.. they seem to help some but still hurts a little ... although i havent worked out since b/c it hurts still whenever i have sex or anything else that increases my bloodflow.. any opinions guys?

Anything can cause that, but if it was a real blled you would probably know by now. If I were you my ass would be at a decent DR or an ER and getting that shit checked out

yes it can, get checked out, i know 2 people who died this year in there twenties from aneurysms

[clapper3989]

im going to get it checked out . i have an appt. for monday.. so straining can cause an aneurysm? or bleedin g in the brain? also.. could it still be just a pinched nerve or pulled muscle there? witho those syptoms

[clapper3989]

also if i was bleeding in the brain or an anuerysm.. after 6 days now... wouldnt i be dead? or can u bleed for a long time and be ok?

first off, i doubt it is anything serious,and it could be many things, just get yourself checked, better to besafer than sorry.

[Doc.Sust]

dont get worried about this, just keep cool and make sure to go to your appt.

[clapper3989]

does this have to be something bad? or can it be a strain or pinched nerve? something that is not so serious also?

[clapper3989]

nvm sorry just saw the post above the last

[clapper3989]

this happened to me back in March, because I have no insurance I didn't see a doc. Stay away from the gym and sex ( I know it sux) for a week, and when you go back go light for a day or two to avoid that pain. I remember that pain and I'd rather get a sharp stick in the eye, Good Luck Bro

[clapper3989]

u got it to? damn im so glad im not the only one.. the pain is insane.. i mean it takes me down.. i never had a pain in my head so excruciating.. that shit throbs like something is coming out the back of your head.. then after u quit whatever ur doing its sore for the rest of the day... its been atleast a week now.. so im gooing to the doc tomorrow .. just to see what he says..

[big daddy k de]

if the pain is that badm something is wrong,it may not be life threatining bt it could be as well, get to the dr's office pronto!!!

i treat people daily with herniations and disc bulges, and nobody complains of pain that severe. also the people i treathad a sever trauma causing them pain, in your case it sounds like asudden onset w/o a trauma, that throws up a few red flags in my book. get checked immediately

Same thing happend to me about two and a half weeks ago on an sd cycle. Get a ct scan, i ended my cycle got a ct scan and it came up clean. My headache came on for some reason during push exercises as well as during sex and masturbation. Anyways I was advised by some bros on AM to take two weeks off and the problem seems to have corrected itself. They mentioned something about a vasospasm maybe that'll mean more to you than it did to me lol. Good luck guys

[clapper3989]

yall have been damn helpful i really appreciate it..
im gonna research vasopasm.. b/c i get that pain in everything you
mentioned... i had a MRI done today so i shold get the results tomorrow and that should narrow it down and ill know if it is anything serious.. but thanks yall.. anymore opinions are acceptable.. b/c man i miss workingout been about 2 wks now

[Doc.Sust]

the mri is the best test, if there is something there it will show

[clapper3989]

I did a MRI results were good, its been about a week and half since this pain.. my head is a little better but still getting a pain so i was wondering if the MRI was good, would that of shown a nerve inflamed , the doc told me it wouldnt show a muscle.. so what do yall think it is? a nerve or muscle? what to do to help ease it? i am going light right now on weights

[clapper3989]

also was wondering does a MRI cover the nerves?

[clapper3989]

any opinions please

[Doc.Sust]

mri shows all soft tissues including nerve , did they do an mri of your neck or your head?

[-DedicateD-]

wow i just thought it was an extreme Blood pressure headache...i got one or 2 of them now on my SD cycle in the past month...during lat pulldown for some reason...and only when the intensity is WAY UP... and usually gets "tweaked" during the last rep.. it reminds me of the pain you get when someone calls your name and u turn around really quick and ur neck has that throbbing pain for a bit..for me it runs from my right shoulder up my neck over my head and is concentrated on the right side...never really too worried about it just thought i was straining something. goes away at the end of my workout or if i lower my intensity...i guess something to think about only 3 workouts left on this stuff either way

[clapper3989]

they did it of my head.. what does it not show? tendons and ligaments and muscles? b/c im really thinking it is a stretched tendon or something.. its really seems to be getting better the pain is decreasing

[clapper3989]

whats the best thing to do for a pulled muscle or tendon?

[Doc.Sust]

if it is of your head, it wouldnt show the cervical spine and the nerve roots, (incase there was impingement)which possibly could be related to your pain. but ince the pain is decreasing, it probably just was a severe strain
