Hey!
My bad for just seeing this. At this point I've learned to live with it. I keep note on when my heachaches happen and where. My 1st neurologist kept canceling appointments on me so I switched doctors. I sometimes think people don't believe me because I "don't look sick" or I don't whine or go whoa it's me lol.
I also had to distance myself from people (and sadly that came from family and friends also) that keep telling me it was in my head throughout the years and come to non-judgmental communities like this.

@harishkumar The headaches that I get are either related to allergies or my neck because I am a spine patient and have muscle spasms that affect my neck. Headaches in the forehead are usually sinus and allergies for me. I do allergy shots and take anti histamines to get it under control as well as HEPA air filtration in my house. Sinus issues can progress to an infection and my doctor has me treat that with an antibiotic ointment topically inside my nose. Dehydration also causes headaches, and caffeine exacerbates dehydration, so drinking lots of water helps.
There are so many causes for headaches. It may be helpful to keep a journal to track your headaches to try to determine a cause. Has your doctor provided a direction to help diagnose your symptoms?
