Between the ages of 16 and 29 I had a headache almost every day. I would take aspirin to the point where my blood became too thin.
I lived in miami and new orleans during this time which are very humid environments and I'm sure that and my nasal allergies magnified my headaches. They were sometimes debilitating to the point where I would miss work and once was hospitalized for a 6 day long ocular migraine.
After several doctor visits they finally deduced that I had not only a deviated septum but also enlarged turbinate bones and apparently my maxillary sinuses (the ones between and above your eyebrows) hadnt drained since I was a teen. I had trauma in that area from when I was 5 and my older brother pushed me into the kitchen floor and stomped on the back of my head.
To correct it I simply had septoplasty and turbinate reduction, and they drained my maxillary sinuses using vacuum tubes. The difference was night and day and the first thing I said after I woke up from surgery is 'Where did my headache go?"
I dont know why you are getting these headaches but hopefully its fixable with surgery like mine.
