How do I manage the unbearable aches involving half of my head?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

Your symptoms are most likely due to migraine, which causes severe headaches mainly on one side that last for a few hours (up to 72 hours) and may be associated with other features like limb numbness, nausea, photophobia, and other different symptoms.

The trigger could be caffeine, bright light, or high sounds.

The other possible causes include the following:

1. Cluster headache (with eye tears).

2. Glaucoma (with eye pain).

3. Secondary to more severe conditions.

Please provide me with more details to reach the appropriate diagnosis.

Do you have a fever, nausea, red eye, or muscle weakness?

I suggest you take tablet Paracetamol 1000 mg for headaches. However, please consult a physician, discuss with them, and start taking the medications with their consent. Do follow-up to confirm the diagnosis.

I hope this helps.

Thank you and take care.
