Hello doctor,

I am a 26-year-old male. My height is five feet and two inches and I weigh 121 pounds. I have a severe one-sided headache. Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You seem to have a headache which is located on one side only. According to me, you are having a cluster headache which can be due to many causes of stress, migraines etc. If you can tell me whether it is right or left sided and whether you have any associated symptoms like nausea, watering of eyes, sleep problems, dizziness I can help you better. Thank you and take care. Regards
