Hi,
If these
headaches are in the presence of nausea,
vomiting, extreme sensitivity to light and sounds then, you may be suffering from a
migraine type of problem for which specific medications from the TRIPTAN FAMILY of drugs could be effective.
If the above symptoms are not present and the headache is just a terrible pain and nothing else then, it could be a headache due to tension, stress,
anxiety, or even as a result of another medication's side effect. The best way to determine what this headache can be due to is for you to keep a daily log or diary of your headaches and then, take them to a specialist in headaches or a
neurologist to interpret your symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dariush Saghafi, Neurologist
