What Is Causing My Headache And Nausea?
Hi, I was recently involved in minion car accident- I didn t black out so little sign of concussion. I had x ray with negative result. Drs at ER didn t think ct scan was necessary. It has been about a week and I have been having severe headache and feeling nauseated. Should I seek medical attention or try Advil for few days and see

sometimes there is some delayed clot formation after head injury-try some pain relievers like paracetamolfor few days and wait and watch-if it stays then consult for ct-scan/MRI

Hi, welcome to our site. I am Dr Saumya Mittal, MD.
Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query
I think before taking a medicine, always a medical opinion should be taken.
In view of the severe headache, doing a radioimaging (CT/MRI) would be a good idea. And therefore I will suggest the same.
In fact I will suggest doing the tests as soon as possible. It may be something organic. Headache with vomitting sounds like raised intracranial tension. This should be relieved as soon as possible
I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above/if any other so I can be of help further.
I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.
Please do understand that some details could be extracted from a detailed history and examination.
Please feel free to ask another query. I would be glad to help you. Looking forward to your return query with the details asked so that I can help you further.
(If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
Best of luck.
