There are lots of different causes for headaches. They can be caused by problems such as stress, colds, eye strain, or side-effects of medication.

But sometimes headaches can be a symptom of a neurological problem. Some neurological conditions may have symptoms of chronic, persistent or severe headaches - these include Cluster Headaches and Migraine, Subarachnoid Haemorrhage (SAH), and head injury.

If you keep having problems with headaches you should get in touch with your doctor.
