The first thing that came to my mind is blood pressure issues too. I urge you to have this checked out as it can be serious. Are you hot and thru with your workout when it starts?
Hi Kevin,
Welcome to the Pain Management Forum at MedHelp. I am glad you found us. I am sorry to hear that you are having head pain when you work out.
If you have been going to the gym for some time and this is a new symptom it should not be ignored. You should make an appointment with your PCP and have a good clinical examination.
One thought that comes to mind is the possibility that your blood pressure may be elevating as your exercise. Most ppl have no symptoms with hypertension. I was lucky enough to have headaches which was my only clue that something was wrong. Please don't think that I am telling you that you have hypertension, I certainly don't know but I do think you need to have this pain diagnosed.
Best of luck to you. Please keep in touch and let us know how you are doing. We will look forward to your updates.
Take Care,
Tuck
