What are the causes of my husband's frequent headache?

Hello doctor,

My husband is having very frequent headache problem for at least twice or thrice in a week. We have consulted eye specialist as well as an ENT specialist, but in the test everything is good. Now, we are worried about his problem.

Can you suggest or guide us about the reason?

Please help.

Thank you.

Hello doctor,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Since last four to five years, he is having this problem. The headache duration will always be different. Sometimes, it will continue until one day and sometimes, two to three hours. He does not have any other irritations during headache. He suffers from only mild headache and sometimes, it will be more painful. But, a couple of days back while having a headache he had vomiting as well.

Actually, due to office timings he has to be awake until late night sometimes till 1 AM in the night and also he is not used to of it. I am not sure if this can be one of the reason. Roughly, he sleeps seven hours in a day. Whenever the pain starts he takes Flexon tablet to reduce the pain and around twice or thrice in a week he takes this medication. We will get magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan for his brain. Once it is done, I will provide you the result and meanwhile, let me know if he can continue taking the same tablet.

Are there any side effects?

Thank you very much.

Hello doctor,

Thanks for the advice.

Trigger factors may be varied at the time of a headache. Sometimes, he says it is because of cold drinks, sour food or drink and sometimes, lack of sleep. So, we are not able to identify the specific factor behind it. Once we are done with all the test, I will get back to you for further consultation.

Please help.

Thank you.
