Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
You either have compression of cervical spinal nerves or a brain lesion or chronic daily headaches. To rule out the first, a MRI of the cervical spine will be needed. For a brain lesion also a MRI will be needed. Generally brain lesions also cause tingling or numbness or loss of function of a limb etc.
Since you have a headache almost daily, what you have is in all probability not a simple migraine but a chronic daily headache (CDH). This can be the primary type—without any cause. If the headache lasts for less than 4 hours then it could be a chronic cluster headache or a chronic paroxysmal hemicranias. The CDH could also be secondary to trauma, raised intracranial hypertension, high blood pressure, cervical disorders like pinched nerves, temporal arteritis etc.
In females of menopausal age group this can be due to hormonal imbalance. Please consult a neurologist to diagnose the cause of your headache. The treatment will follow the diagnosis.
Hope this helps. Do let me know if there is any thing else and keep me posted. Take care!
