I've been getting headaches more and more frequently over the past couple months, on one side of my head in one specific spot. It usually just comes on quickly and lasts a few seconds to an hour, but sometimes lasts off and on all day. It sometimes feels like something hit me in the head (like a sharp, shooting pain that comes on suddenly). Tylenol sometimes helps, but it's been getting worse and more frequent (I could ignore the headaches before when they came on, but it's a lot harder to now). Sometimes I'll feel it when I'm lying down on that side (like a tenderness/pain), or it'll feel like it's radiating down to my neck or jaw. I've had other symptoms on and off for a while (nausea, occasional vomiting), but they've been written off by everyone as stress as well. I'm wondering if it's just due to stress and I should just ignore it or if I should actually make a doctor's appointment.
