I've been getting a headache constantly for the last 3 days. I'm keeping hydrated and my diet hasn't changed but they hurt so bad. I take some tylenol and 4-6 hours later when it wears off the headache is back. Take more tylenol, goes away, 4-6 hours its back. I've tried cold compress, sleep... Is this some new bug going around or what. Anybody had the constant headache? Any remides for it?

might be migraine, i.e. the blood vessels in your brain are too tight and produce pressure when blood is flowing through.
Is the headache localized, like behind the eyes, or on the forehead region?
it could be a lot of things.
My wisdomteeth started hurting at ear level and neck, but I could distinguish it from a headache.
Since you work and are outside of the house it can't be lack of oxygen.
Maybe get it checked with an doctor.
If you don't have vertigo, high temperature and nausea it doesn't sound acute and dangerous, but still...
Thanks for your help.
yes it can. I sometimes have headache from using the pc for too long, but you usually can tell if it's from that. (when it starts when sitting in stuffy room infront of the screen, but gets better when you walk around get fresh air etc.)
It does not sound harmful, just keep hydrated and get fresh oxygen... If it does persis 4 more days (so around a week), get it checked with a doctor.
If you get vertigo, abnormal high temperature, nausea, and sluggishness, go the the doctor asap.
it may also be a virus -sometimes they can just cause headaches.
if its not gone away but the end of the week i would go see a doctor.
I get headaches behind my eyes, I went to the doc and all i got was a I dunno shoulder shrug.
useless NHS !!!
So what does it imply ?
Puuh, I'm not a doctor myself, but I had that when I had a - I translate literally now - "forehead cavity inflammation". It can be some sort of ophtalmic migraine, if it comes in waves.
Is your view skewed? Do you see coloury veils?
I hope you feel better soon. I get a headache everyday and it's a nightmare. Mine are usually at the front of my head though and the doctor reckons it's sinusitus (sp?). Rubbish!
Thankfully I don't have to take 'em anymore, things drain the energy outta ya something shocking.
