Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
Headaches can occur as part of adjustment of the body to the hormonal changes of pregnancy. Since you have described localization of the pain, please make sure sinus infection is excluded. This appears as cold.
Other possible causes are- dehydration, anemia and mineral deficiency and rarely, a rise in the blood pressure. Regular antenatal visits and correction of deficiencies cater to these.
Please ask her to take as much rest as possible and take plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Adequate hydration should be maintained.
Hope your query has been clarified. Please feel free to contact for further information. I will be happy to help.
regards,
Shanti.V.
