I'm having horrible headaches, pain behind my eyes, sparkles and flashing lights, wavy lines, dizziness, neck pain, nausea, tingling and numbness, and my scalp is pretty tender. I'm 17 years old and have been experiencing these symptoms for about 2 weeks. This is the first time I've had problems like this, and I have no history of headache conditions. The headache comes and goes, is localized on the side of my head but started in the front, and I also have a swollen eyelid on the same side. No recent traumas, no known medical conditions, and I haven't seen a doctor about this. I'm worried and have bad anxiety about this. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
