head pain lower left back quadrant of the skull

[SherMomof16]

I have a sharp very bad pain in the lower back left part of my skull over to my left ear. It feels like extreme pressure. Sometimes it will back off to a dull ache. It started about a week ago. It has not fully gone away since. If I try to do anything extremely strenuous or stressful it seems to be much much worse. I have been taking aspirin and using ice packs for  very limited relief. My doctor can not see me for 6 weeks.
Any advice as to What to try that might would ease the pain?

I have contusion and concussion. I know when inflammation is coming on in my head or that it feels like it. I was told to take only "Tylenol" for inflammation of the head and Ibuprofen for Inflammation in the body, as told by my physician. And in minutes it seems to improve. and I know that after physical work such as lifting or ironing, lately I get nausea and dizziness as the result. Be careful.

Try taking Excedrin Tension Headache, since you've only been taking aspirin, this should help. You can also speak with a pharmacist, although it is Memorial Day.
