Should I Be Concerned For Frequent Headache?
my 4 yr old son has been complaining his forehead hurts more frequently. He said he was going to vomit and continued to scream in pain until we got home. I gave him advil as I assumed it to be a headache...should I be more concerned? Could it be more than just a headache?

Hello
Welcome to HCM.
Frequent Headache in a 4yrs old child can be commonly due to weak eyesight. First would be get his vision tested.
If this is alright, then other medical causes of headache would be considered by a child specialist.
Thanks
