Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband is 90. He never gets headaches but he's had one for the last two days. He also vomited last evening only once. I have given him Tylenol which helps. I am concerned about his getting the flu, even though he's had the flu shot. He has been on heart medication since his heart attack 9 years ago. Medication has not changed all that time. I hate to take him to a facility that may have the flu germs present. Should I be concerned?
Hello,my name is dr.Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern. Headache and vomiting can be related even to migraine. I suggest you to use a painkiller such as ibuprofen 400 mg. Hope my answer was helpful.If you have any other question Ill be glad to help. Regards, dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
