I've been getting these bad headaches every time I take a head bath, and it doesn't matter if the water's hot or cold. Sometimes the pain's so intense that I even feel like throwing up. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

The recurring headaches triggered by taking a head bath, regardless of water temperature, could be related to various factors, including scalp tension, sinus pressure, or sensitivity to shampoo or water pressure; consider trying the following: use gentle, fragrance-free shampoo; warm up your scalp with a gentle massage before washing; avoid using hot water, which can cause blood vessels to dilate and lead to headaches; try taking breaks during the bath to relax and breathe deeply

I'm not sure what's going on, but I've been feeling really dizzy whenever I'm sitting, standing, or even talking to someone. It's making it tough to do simple things. Plus, I can't seem to look at anything that rotates without feeling worse. I got a brain CT scan done, but it came back normal, and the meds I've tried, like Vertistar, Sturgeon, and Gravol, aren't doing anything for me. Im still struggling. Can you help me figure out what's happening?

So I've been noticing this odd smell like something is burning even though nothing actually is, and it's kind of freaking me out. Plus, I've got a mild headache and I'm dealing with GERD. Could this all be related, or should I be worried about something else going on?

It can be case of migraine.

I've been dealing with this persistent headache at the top of my head and forehead. When I watch TV, the pain just sticks around, right on the top of my head and in my eyes, which feel heavy. I've tried taking lots of painkillers, but nothing seems to help. I'm also feeling really tired. I'm worried and curious about what might be going on. Could it be something serious? What should I do to feel better?
