Suggest Treatment For Chronic Headaches And Dizziness
my sister has been constantly getting these horrible headaches that put her in a terrible amount of pain with a lot of pressure she has also started getting really dizzy at random times it comes out of nowhere but it s intense for a few seconds but it scares her good one more thing is she is constantly thirsty she s a dental assistant always on the go and doesn t eat all day until about eight at night I don t know if that has something to do with but just putting it out there if that helps
First of all headache can occur due to many reason. You should underdo a refraction testing means eye check up to rule out whether headache is occuring due to eye problem. B.P should be measured to rule out hypertension. If headache is associated with aura, nausea, vomitting, visual disturbance and if family h/o is present, or headache is unilateral mainly with precipitating factor then strong suspicion of migrain arise. Well to arrive at a diagnosis through general physical and systemic examination along with investigation is needed . so plz go to physician for further work up.
