General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to migraine. I suggest doing some examinations such as blood test, an X-ray or an MRI of the head to exclude other possible medical condition.

Meanwhile, I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication to relieve the pain such as Acetaminophen.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
