Headaches since epidural 2 mos ago

I have been having on/off headaches for the past two months since my daughter was born.  I am getting a litle concerned as to why they are happening almost daily.  I have been going to physical therapy for my neck and back pain which only came back after I had the baby 7 weeks ago.  I had a car accident 18 months ago which left me with neck and lower back pain, could this be triggering my headaches?  Any info will help!  Thanks!

Hi,

How are you?
Yes it is quite possible that your headaches are the result of neck injuries. Severe neck injuries like in a motor vehicle accident can cause headaches.
I would suggest you to take mild OTC pain killers for pain and continue with the physical therapy for neck and back.
Take care!
