I have had 2 episodes of pain developing pre-orgasm in my head (back of head at the base) and neck. It starts a couple of minutes pre-orgasm and peaks at orgasm. This starts as a dull ache and builds towards orgasm. I take 2 paracetamol and it settles within 15-30 minutes. It has happened on a couple of isolated occasions in the past. One of the recent 2 occasions was when masturbating so no great exertion was involved. My bloods indicate I am menopausal and I am only having periods about every 4 months currently. I am 53. I am on bisoprolol fro high blood pressure. I am also on Mirtazipine 45mg
Hi, Of course, pre medicating with the same medicine that reliably works on pain 15 to 30 min after taking it is generally MORE effective than treating the pain after it has begun. I cannot say in your particular case and the pain follows a particular pattern which implies where the pain is from. Going from the neck to the back of the head is a very typical pattern for a nerve being pinched and/or a muscle spasm. Either of these can be treated with several different NON-ADDICTING mild prescriptions. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
