Headache & Migraine
Headache warning signs - and when to call the doctor
The majority of people experience headaches during their lifetime. For the most part, headaches are short lived, only lasting a matter of minutes or hours.
But what if the pain doesn’t go away? And what if there are additional symptoms or illness? How can you tell when a headache is serious enough to seek medical attention?
There are several definite warning signs that signal a headache may be more serious. If you experience any of the following symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.
- Sudden and/or severe headache accompanied by a stiff neck, fever, nausea, or vomiting
- Severe headache accompanied by confusion, weakness, double vision or loss of consciousness
- Headaches that worsen or change their patterns over time, frequent headaches, or persistent headaches
- Headache following a head injury
- Recurring headaches in children
- Headache with weakness or loss of sensation in any part of the body (may be a sign of stroke)
- Headache associated with convulsions
- Headache with shortness of breath
- Numbness or weakness, including slurred speech or difficulty walking
- Altered vision, double vision, blurred vision, or partial loss of vision
- Confusion, convulsions, or loss of consciousness.
When paired with a headache, these symptoms may be warning signs of a serious illness or injury. They may occur with the onset of head pain, or after experiencing a headache. Either way, you should seek immediate medical attention.
Head injury
Any time a head injury results in a headache, consult a doctor right away. Head pain following a head trauma could be a sign of damage that requires immediate medical treatment.
