Suggest Treatment For Migraine Headaches And Arthritis In The Neck
Question: I suffer with quite a few migraine headaches, which are also caused by arthritis in my neck. I was told years ago to use Mersyndol forte for the headaches. OVer the last six years I have had a lot of stress and headaches. I only use half a tablet at a time and the most three quarters of a tablet for a bad migraine. I am worried about my liver breaking down these tablets. EVery two or three days I use Mersyndol but not all the time. I don't want to be addicted to them but they work for the headaches.
Brief Answer:
Paracetamol can be tried
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for query.
I understand your concern.
You can try Tab PARACETAMOL during headache. You need to check liver and renal parameters once in 3 months as you are on Tab MERSYNDOL FORTE. Plenty of fluid intake is recommended to avoid drug toxicity. Avoid long travel, extreme temperatures, smoking, alcohol etc
I want to know whether you have cervical spondylosis or not. Consult a neurologist if symptoms are severe.
Regular physical activities like meditation,Yoga can relieve you from migraine and stress.
Kindly get back to me if any query.
Regards,
Dr VSK
