Owwww Headache! Make It Stop Make It Stop!

[Medical Kid]

ok for the past two days when i masturbate, RIGHT before i ejaculate, an extreme pain over comes the top of my head, and when i move my mouth or chew food, it hurts even more! and it takes like an hour to go away! HEEEAAALP!

Hmmmm.....The impulses might be triggering a brain influx. It would be best if you didnt masturbate and consulted a physician. Pain like this if it persists can cause memory loss, loss of coordination and many other things.

oh jeez, if thats the case I dont know how I can go very long with out temptation taking over me.....

great post KGTM rep +:D

Headaches during sexual arousal are pretty common. Remember, the whole erection/arousal thing is vascular, and there are pretty extreme changes in blood pressure, culminating in orgasm (when it get's really extreme!), then it returns to normal. It's the sudden and dramatic shift in blood pressure and respiration, muscle tension that causes the headache. I doubt it's really serious.

Take it a little easier, maybe you're overworking yourself a bit (!).

This is pretty much wholly incorrect. "Brain influx"? Are you just trying to use big meaningless words to sound intelligent? If so, you should probably pick words that actually mean something.

OP: You are having benign post-coital headaches. They are (in most cases) thought to be caused by the increased blood pressure and attendant vasodilation in the brain during/after sexual activity.

I used to get them too (when I was about 13-14), and know exactly what you're talking about. They're excruciatingly painful and often stick around for quite a while. Unfortunately, I don't really know what to suggest to fix them, because after about a month of having them (and yes, I masturbated anyways, because it was definitely worth it despite the pain afterward) they simply stopped. I don't know why. I don't really know why I started having them either, except that my mother has horrible migraines whenever she has caffeine (another vasodilator) leading me to believe I might have a genetic disposition. In your case, if they persist, you may want to see a doctor - there are anti-inflammatory and anti-migraine drugs that can help.

First of don't bash me over the forums if you feel asthough I'm wrong them pm me dont come charging in on your high horse. Second an Influx is a term used to describe a impulse from your nerve system. Well seeing as orgasm sends impulses through your nerves it is possible that he could have an "overload" Or influx meaning alot or to much. Also genetic dispositions are not treated with medication, they are things such as mental illness, autism, turner's syndrome, down's syndrome.

Exactly right. This happened to me a while back. Try to relax and take it easy.
It stops after a while.

Sorry, but you're spouting off misinformation in an advice thread; for the sake of the OP (who might make decisions based on what you've said) it needs to be corrected publicly. Sorry. I'm not trying to embarrass you or offend you.

Influx is not a term for an impulse from your nervous system. The word for an impulse from a nerve is... "impulse". Cool, no? The term you're looking for is sensory overload - influx has no meaning in this context.

Also genetic dispositions are not treated with medication, they are things such as mental illness, autism, turner's syndrome, down's syndrome.

This is the dumbest thing you've said yet. Almost everything you've said is completely wrong. The diseases you listed are indeed caused by genetic abnormality; that's true. However, they are not b any means the only ones caused by genetics; almost every disease and physical attribute has a genetic component. Examples include heart disease, high blood pressure, cholesterol, obesity, arthritis, osteoporosis, certain types of cancers, asthma, acne, autoimmune conditions, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, other neurodegenerative diseases (ALS, Huntington's, etc.)... I could go on, but I think you get the point.

Moreover, genetic diseases are absolutely treated with medication. We'll use an example you provided: mental illnesses. Schizophrenia is treated with haloperidol, risperidone and other antipsychotics, bipolar disorder is treated with lithium and other drugs and ADD is treated with amphetamines, methylphenidate and other new drugs. Other diseases with genetic components like certain cancers, emphysema (alpha 1-antitrypsin deficient emphysema, that is) and autoimmune diseases are obviously treated with medication as well.

In this case, my mother has an underlying idiopathic sensitivity to caffeine and attendant higher blood pressure in the brain. I have inherited that to some extent, thus the "genetic predisposition".

No offense, but if you obviously don't know what you're talking about why do you post advice?

I didn't say influx wasn't a word, and I know exactly what it means. The problem is that it means nothing in a medical context - and that's exactly what I said. It is certainly not me who needs to be checking my vocabulary.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, stop bashing me. INFLUX FITS IN THE CONTEXT, because its a sudden oncoming of anything, WHICH INCLUDES PAIN. That may in fact explain the headaches, the sudden INFLUX OF IMPULSES from the neurons located in the genetalial region. Well it is true the things such as high blood pressure are cause by genetics, ALL THE OTHER THINGS YOU LISTED ARE NOT GENETIC DISPOSITIONS BECAUSE THEY ARE THINGS THAT ARE ARE BROUGHT ON TO YOU FOR CERTAIN REASONS. A genetic disposition is something you due to the lack or abundance of certain gene, thus the word GENETIC fits in. Also don't tell me I can't post in a thread, I GIVE THE BEST ADVICE I CAN, who are you to tell me I can't give advice just because you think your info is better? The only people who can tell me not to post are mods and admins and you sir or whatever you are, are not one of those. SO either you not argue, cause I'm certainly not going to sink to your level, or you can stop telling that I can't post advice, because you will be punished if you post such things as, "You shouldn't post advice if you don't know what you are talking about." By the way, I reported your post, try to not to post so rudely over the advice I'm giving to a fellow member. Ok thanks buddy, bye.

Remember correcting or disputing people's advice is fine as long as it doesn't turn into a fight. That's what has happened here.

Closing thread. We don't need petty arguments.
