What might be causing this headache?

Question

My boyfriend has been having a horrible headache for the last 5 days.

Its towards his forehead, and is on one side. and today it "moved" to the other side. and when it's really bad, he gets a bit dizzy when he gets up.

He took a 15 min nap today and it made the headache worse...

His sleeping scheduale has been off the whole summer, usually sleep at around 3-4am, get up at around 1pm. He never had headaches because of sleep before though.

I'm afraid it's something very serioues, like a tumor or something. When should he go see a doctor?

Also, he hasn't hit his head lately.

Answer 1

Well I'm not a doctor, but if it's just a normal headache then it shouldn't be that big of a deal. He may have a migraine. Those can be caused by the little bit of stress ever. And seeing he switched his routine, his body may be trying to figure it out because it's not something it's use to and maybe that's causing it. Dizziness can be caused by getting up to fast. But if you get really worried about it, like if it doesn't go away, then go to the doctors. But I'd try some migraine pills maybe. Or have him tell his parents about it.

Answer 2

It sounds like he's got a sinus headache.  I am not a doctor that if it gets worse to go to the ER and have them check it out.  ASAP.  Has he had his eyes checked out lately?  Blurred vision?  

Answer 3

he might have mineres disease. not sure if its spelled right, but he has most of the symptoms
