Q. Why does the patient experience headaches and nausea after working on the computer for long hours?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

In online consultation, we doctors can not give official prescriptions or certificates.

We can only suggest or advise medications.

You can take a simple painkiller like Paracetamol or Ibuprofen twice a day after some food for three days.

I am sure you will feel better.

Try to avoid constantly watching the screen. Take five minutes to break every 40 to 50 minutes.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

A blunt head injury causes little inflammation in soft tissue.

So this can cause pain and headaches.

Painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs like Paracetamol or Ibuprofen will reduce inflammation and pain.

May I know,

1. Do you have a headache exactly at the point of hit, or whole head is hurting?

2. Is it for an entire day?

3. Do you feel headache and nausea together?

Thank you.

I can understand your concern.

To your history and description possibility of migraine headache is more likely.

So please let me know.

1. Any similar kind of headache and nausea feeling in the past, before the hit accident?

2. Do you have glasses?

3. Is an eye checkup done?

4. Any stress and anxiety?

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

Since you have stress and anxiety, migraine headaches might be a possibility.

Migraine headache is more when a patient uses a mobile screen, laptop, or computer screen.

So, I think you should take painkillers like Paracetamol or Ibuprofen.

Take a five to ten minutes break every 40 to 50 minutes while on a computer.

Avoid stress and tension, and be relaxed and calm.

Thank you.
