Hi all, my father is having headache on the right side of his head for the last 1.5 month. We have got him seen to multiple doctors but no avail. Initially, he took paracetamol but it was of no use. Then we got his eyes checked from ophthalmologist who confirmed everything was fine. Then we took homeopathic medicine for migraine which relieved initially but the pain returned back. Then we went to general physician who gave naprosyn for 3 days and eliwel 10 mg for 10 days .he also added vitamin b-complex capsules to the same .naprosyn was very helpful and eliwel also reduced the pain somewhat .but after finishing the dose the pain has returned .also the doctor asked to do blood tests and calcium/protein tests which showed everything normal .what should I do in this case as we are clueless now .any help on the same will be appreciated.

Hello lybrate-user, the major determinant in your father's case is the onset of headache. If he has a new onset headache, he has to be evaluated in detail including mri scan of his brain. If his headache has been going for past few years, then his medicines need to be streamlined by a neurologist. Feel free to contact for further queries.

He needs to do an mri of brain. It can be because of many reason from simple reasons like not sleeping on time or sleeping too much, stress, have long hours of fasting, dehydration to causes like sinusitis, migraine, high blood pressure, tumor etc. Do this 1. Take adequate night sleep 2. Eat at regular intervals. As starvation/gas can trigger headache 3. Avoid things that can trigger headache. Common triggers include alcohol, caffeine or poor sleep. Inculcate good sleep practices like having a regular bedtime schedule and avoiding naps, caffeine and tv before bedtime. 4. Don't take stress- pursue an enjoyable activity or verbalising frustration to reduce stress and improve mental health. 5. Avoid foods that you know triggers your headache. 6.
