anyone have headaches after c section ?

Question

I had a c section 3 and a half weeks ago and pretty much for the last 2 almost 3 whole weeks I've had a headache that does not go away. It is constant. I've googled and not finding anything and I haven't went to the doctor because it's just a headache and idk what they can do besides tell me to take meds that don't work. 
It's behind my eyes, eyebrows, temples, ears, and back of my head. It doesn't really fall into any if the headache catagories I see like migraines tension headaches. Anything like that. Idk if it was maybe a common thing after c sections maybe. 
I know your not doctors obviously. Just wondering if anyone else has them

Answer

It's from the spinal tap they give you. If you lay flat for awhile it should help. But that won't make it go away for good. I would go see the doctor.

Answer

It is a rare side effect from the epidural/spinal block. Definitely go in to the dr, they can help.

Did they start after you reduced or stopped taking the narcotic pain meds? I had horrible withdrawal symptoms when I went off mine including headaches.

Answer

Could be from epidural/spinal block. I'd definitely see your doctor.x
