Q. What should I do for persistent headache?
Hi doctor,
Initially, my problem started with a headache, and I felt shaky and dizzy the next day. I felt the same for around four days and went to the hospital. They said that I was dehydrated. But they did not give me anything for it and sent me home. I still have a headache, shaky, dizzy and feel almost worse. What should I do?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I am sorry to hear about your persistent troubles.
- You need to have plenty of oral fluids. Take Paracetamol 500 mg up to three times a day to relieve the symptoms.
- Headaches could be because of multiple reasons. I am enlisting the most common causes.
- Are you working too much on the computer? Persistent headaches could also be due to excessive eye strain. Get your vision testing done.
- Is your headache more on one side of the head? In that case, there is a possibility of a migraine.
- If you have stuffy nose as well, then it could be due to sinusitis.
- Try to self-evaluate and find the cause. Till then, for relief, you can have Paracetamol. Take care.
