Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you are mostly having migraine like headache.
But better to get done blood pressure monitoring and hemoglobin estimation to rule out hypertension and anemia as both of them can cause similar kind of headache.
If both these are normal then migraine is more likely.
For better symptomatic relief in migraine follow these lifestyle modifications.
1. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
2. Avoid excessive sun exposure.
3. Avoid fasting and take your meals timely.
4. Take propranolol and flunarizine combination at night time before bed.
5. Take sound sleep of 6-8 hours.
6. Drink plenty of fluids orally and keep your self hydrated.
7. Avoid excessive laptop, computer and mobile use.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
