Constant headache above left eye

Hi .im a 35 yrs female and I've been having this constant headache for the past 10-12 days which initially started as a sharp constant pain in the forehead and the front area of the head.it used to hurt really bad even to nod my head from side to side and it felt like brain was hurting my skull (sorry that's the best I cd explain) .i used to hurt to bend down and my temples hurt like hell if I coughed.i also had some amount of nausea ....Asif I was sick in the stomach or something.in the beginning ..2-3 days it was sheer agony,I didn't want to talk or work or do any anything.
Now after about 7-8 days I'm left with a constant pain above my left eye ...it kindove worsens in sunlight.it hurts if I cough  or bend...and it makes me feel tired all day.though there's no stomach sickness any more.
I dont feel like doing much ....lying down on the bed with my eyes closed seems to help a little...otherwise I've been having a sumo (combination  of nimbler and paracetamol) and that helps.
I fail to understand what the problem might be.

Hi and welcome to the Migraines & Headaches Community.

My doctor once told me that if I had a migraine for 7 days straight then I needed to make an appt. Your symptoms do sound migraine-like but whether it is a migraine or not it is time to go see your doctor. And please let us know what they say!!
