Pulsating headache
I am experiencing severe pulsating headache in my head since about 10 years now. They come and go once in a while, sometimes within a week or two. It becomes impossible to carry out daily activities with such severe pain. My eyes area also starts paining and I have to literally pound my first on my head to get relief because any medicine, balm or normal massage does not ease any pain.
I feel like something in pulsing inside like a heart pumps.
I am assuming it to be a migraine since a long time but I am afraid, of there is anything else. Please help me .
