Hello dear
Understand your concern.
I think you are suffering from laughing headache.
In laughing and coughing, heavy exertion, weight lifting causes increased thoracic pressor and lead to trigger event cause headache.
Take following advice:
So avoid excessive laugh
It is self limiting disease.
If not respnse you can take
Tablet Indomethcin or
Tablet Divalproex sodium to prevent it.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
