Are you still taking pain meds?  I would call you NS and tell them about this.  You don't need to be in pain.  I would suggest heat and ice also.  I know when I have HA's like this I put the heating pad on my head and put a pillow on top of it.  For some reason for me it takes some of the pressure off.  Try this and I pray it helps you also.  Taking your pain med's in a timely pattern helps.
