Throbbing headache

2019-03-23 06:29:54
I have been having severe headaches which continue for days. I used to have migraine earlier but it used to go away in a day. This pain doesn't go away even after taking heavy pain killers. The pain is on both sides of the head and it's always throbbing. If I move my head a little, it pains a lot for few seconds before it settles. What should I do about it? Any tests required?
