Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of migraine headache and vertigo. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query , but in your case the symptoms are due to exertion headache or exertion migraine . This usually occur due to reasons like subarachnoid hemorrhage , abnormalities in a blood vessel , tumor , obstruction of cerebrospinal fluid flow or sinus infection. Need not to worry. Avoid to go at noisy and loud and flashy l;light areas. I would suggest you to consult neurologist for proper examination . Doctor may order CT scan or MRI . Doctor may also take history or check vitals . Doctor may prescribe anti inflammatories and betablockers. For now do mind relaxing exercises like yoga and meditation .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
