Hi,
Unilateral headache may be just migraine rather than any nerve inflammation. Please avoid stress, prolonged screen time and take proper sleep. Anti-inflammatory medicines should be tried before going ahead for any nerve block. MRI scan should also be done to aid in the diagnosis.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Abhishek Juneja, Neurologist
