Headaches can be very debilitating. Do you have them in a specific part of your head ? is it a general pain or specific to front, back or either side ?
I used to have constant headaches but not always in the same place. sometimes right behind my eyes. This went on for years, never did find out why but now on strong pain meds for other things not so bad still get them daily but paracetamol usually works. It is something you do need to get checked out if you can get to your GP
