Hello,
Headache commonly occurs due to weather changes, stress, fatigue, BP issues, low blood glucose, dehydration, lack of sleep, tension or anxiety, migraine, etc.
You are suggested to take some warm beverage, soups so that you are not dehydrated. Take ORS, Electrol to keep your body electrolyte system normal.
If diabetic keep your blood glucose level normal at all cost. Avoid oily food & take adequate sleep. You can take Acetaminophen or Naproxen, one sos when needed.
Stiffness or numbness in the hands and feet can be due to developing peripheral neuropathy, fibromyalgia, MS or diabetes.
You are suggested to get clinically examined by a Neurologist, get all Nerve conduction tests & required imaging tests or Nerve biopsy done.
Your treatment will depend on the pathology detected & your clinical condition, in the meantime take vitamin B6, B12, vitamin E rich food or its supplements.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K
