Hello,

Thank you for your post.

I am sorry to hear that you are worried about a headache. These are usually due to poor sleep, being a bit stressed, or poor posture. Even sleeping on a poor pillow can strain the neck and cause a headache. Not drinking enough fluids can cause dehydration too, which can lead to a headache. So there are many possible explanations. Eye strain from not using glasses will definitely contribute to having headaches. So, do wear any prescription glasses regularly. Strengthening exercises to the neck and shoulder regions can also help.

There is good helpful information about headaches on the NHS website here,

If you are concerned in the future, then do ring your GP or NHS 111 as we are unable to give medical advice on this forum.

Brain tumours are in fact quite rare in the general population, whereas straightforward headaches are very common.

I hope that you feel better soon.

Kind regards,

Vanda
