Hello,

Possible causes for headache and weakness in your individual point of view
1.Hypertension which leads to headaches.
2.Ear infection or sinusitis.
3. Meningitis etcetera
Causes for weakness
1. Viral Fever
2. Steroid intake.
Use antihypertensive, try to reduce the steroid dose. Still, I don't know for what purpose you took steroids. Use of water vapor inhalation and saltwater gargling. Tablet Ultracet twice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
