Hello,

A slight headache after such trauma and treatment is expected. If the headache goes on for more than a month or becomes worse an evaluation by the Doctor for possible sinusitis is necessary. Tylenol or ibuprofen may be used for the headaches.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Erion Spaho
