Brief Answer:
Headache may be related to cold

Detailed Answer:
Hi..thanks for writing..i have understood your concern

The continuous common cold may result into sinusitis..the common symptoms of that are recurrent cold and headache particularly in forehead region and by the sides of nose..

These also causes heaviness and uneasy and dizzi feeling..

Above is one possibility..the another possibility may be related to stress..continuous stress can cause uneasiness and headache..

If I would be your treating doctor I will order investigations like blood tests x ray of para nasal sinuses to out the sinusitis first..if stress is predominant then mostly it is a part of anxiety..
I suggest you visit An ENT doctor to rule out the cause.

the pain in joint is possibly a associated symptoms because of tiredness and fatigue..
Meanwhile I suggest you Paracetamol 650 mg for pain.
Cetrizine 5 mg for cold once a day.
Steam inhalation twice a day.


I hope this will answer your question..best luck

it is not a phenomenon of addiction here..you are using because you feel pain..
