What Is The Remedy For Headache?

My friend has been sleeping odd recently. He goes to bed at a reasonable time due to being tired, wakes up early before his alarm for no reason, and goes about his day exhausted. More often than not, he has some degree of a headache ranging from minor to not being able to move without immense discomfort.

Hi and thanks for the query,
Headache could be primary or secondary. Primary headaches are mainly migraine headaches, tension and cluster headaches. Secondary headaches could arise due to infections, trauma, and might require at times lumbar taps or CT scans. The clinical review would orient and decide if a CT scan is required or not. Resistant headaches could deserve the attention of a neuologist. Kind regards
