Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have been experiencing headaches and pain around my eyes and eyebrows. A medical professional has prescribed various medications, including painkillers in high doses, and recommended to get tested for migraines. Although the painkillers have relieved my symptoms to some extent, I am concerned about their potential adverse effects on my liver and body since I am only 20 years old. Furthermore, I frequently use my mobile phone. I am wondering if there are any home remedies or suggestions that can help relieve my symptoms, so I do not have to take on high doses of painkillers. Please suggest.

Thanking you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your query and can understand your health concern.

Diagnosis of migraine headaches depends on history.

In migraine, headache is usually unilateral, may or may not be associated with nausea and vomiting, increases with exposure to bright light or loud noise, increases with stress and a remaining empty stomach for a long time, less or excessive sleep, relieves taking sleep for at least four hours. Suppose your headache is like that. Then you are suffering from a migraine. Avoid tea, coffee, oily and spicy food. Take proper healthy food on time. Avoid excessive sleep. Avoid alcohol and stressful situations. Do regular exercise and a morning walk for at least half an hour.

As you mentioned, your platelet count is low. Ask your doctor to evaluate its cause properly. Do not use mobile phones excessively.

I hope this helps.

Regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
