May be related to other things than Ibuprofen alone
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history about your daughter.
To recapitulate : Female / 17 - headache since age of 5 years - 12 years - now more frequent almost daily - now stomach pains - kidney / back area hurting - night sweats - tired -gained weight - ear ringing sometimes - Blood work (details please) and X-ray sinuses normal - Ibuprofen for a long time > wondering if these symptoms are related to it....
All the above symptoms may not be related to Ibuprofen alone. Ibuprofen causes more problems like Gastritis, or related to Kidney.
I would like to advise the following in such a patient: Please get these things done if not yet done. You may also please post the reports attached to this query.
- Proper Physical examination particularly Blood Pressure (known to give headaches and other symptoms)
- Blood tests : Hormone profiles, Particularly Thyroid, Kidney function tests and liver function tests.
- Ultrasonography of the abdomen particularly for Ovaries / PCOS, Kidneys and urinary bladder. May be a reason for weight gain or so.
- An expert opinion of a Neurologist for Clinical and Physical examination, to see for vascular causes , which can also cause ringing in ears and headaches.
I would like to know if your daughter has any additional symptoms related to menstrual problems / any relation of the headache to menstrual cycle / anything related to abdominal pains
I hope this answer helps you, please feel free to ask for more and give the feedback so that we can discuss further if need be.
