There are many things that can cause a headache for over a week. I'm actually going through it right now. I've been to the doctor 2 but I've just been given paracetamol (500mg) and ibuprofen (200mg) this doesn't work, my advice is that you should try taking them both together 3 times a day every 4 hours, it hasn't worked for me, but I'm going for some tests, keep you updated, hope this helped.:-)
