HI WELCOME TO HCM,

The headaches typically are aggravated(increased) by exertion or straining and usually improve with rest...give him lot of fluids, orange juice (improve immune system),..give him symptomatic medications like paracetamol 500mg three times a day after food...if still persisting ..i suggest , him to consult a doctor for blood check ...wish him a speedy recovery...
