Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.



Yes, you need to take medical attention as you are still having severe headache. Rule out intracranial hemorrhage. Once it is clear, you can take analgesics for pain relief and you will be fine.



Hope I have answered your query.

Let me know if I can assist you further.
