Weather change and headache

Weather change and headache

Suffered a concussion at the end of Aug.  Lived with headache for quite sometime before finally going to see doctor....I have a very high tolerance to pain and it was guillotine strength and then just became tolerable but I couldn't deny short term memory loss or other weird stuff (brain is thinking but the fingers aren't typing correctly)...having to triple check and more spelling and grammar.  Feels like an icicle (cold) along with the headache.  Trying saying that to your doctor and not sound crazy.

Was sent to a neurologist last week - blew those office tests and he has scheduled testing for soft tissue damage....I live in Texas and the northerner hit....it's cold.  Cold front moved in last night.....and my headache went from tolerable to starting to hurt pretty bad. The ice cube on my head is turning back into an cicle going down into my brain again.  

Can teh change in weather, barometric change increase the headache?

Hi,

Thanks for writing in.
Yes change in weather and barometric pressure can worsen headaches. Cold weather and low oxygen pressure are known to cause bad headaches or increase the intensity of existing ones.
I would suggest you to keep your head covered up most of the times. Use a cap or a muffler to cover your head.
Was there any positive finding in the CT scan of brain?
