If your headache lasts for a long time in one area, is severe or involves any other symptoms such as sickness, dizziness, a migraine, changes in vision, is on one side of your head only, or occurs when you first wake up and/or following strenuous exercise you should talk to your doctor or pharmacist immediately.
