I've been having a problem recently. When I swim, about 300 yds in, I get a really bad headache. This just started happening about two weeks ago. I have been swimming for about year now and have never had anything like this. The pain is unbearable to the point where it feels like a migraine.
If anyone has had the same problem please let me know. Are my goggles too tight? Maybe my swimcap? Am I depriving my brain of oxygen !? Any input would be greatly appreciated. I would like to be able to swim without this pain!

I think it may be not holding my head in a neutral position. I have also recently switched over to bi-lateral breathing instead of breathing on one side. I am only 23, so I don't think it's osteo-arthritis.
