Hello,
Maintain healthy weight, loose weight if
obese. Manage
stress, both physical and emotional. Avoid taking salty snacks, red meat & food that triggers blood pressure. Avoid
constipation. If required take laxatives for a better bowel movement. Avoid taking
Excedrin regularly, as taking this medicine for a longer duration of time may cause feeling of pressure in your ears, affect hearing or cause ringing in the ears.
People taking Excedrin for a very long duration of time suffer from side effects like
tinnitus. You are advised to get your ears examined by an ENT, to rule out any infection or any other developing pathology in the ears. To manage headache, avoid stress and
anxiety, do regular exercise. Avoid working for long hours on Laptop or PC. Take break between works.
Give yourself adequate sleep and wear dark glasses when outdoors to avoid glare of the sunlight. Prefer staying in AC room & stay away from pollution, noise pollution, strong lights, strong smell as these factors trigger headache. Stay adequately hydrated,
dehydration and lack of food in proper time also causes headache. Get a CT / MRI done to rule out any tumor or trauma in your head that may be causing you headache.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
