If your headache frequency is once a month and you get relief with diclofenac sodium and paracetamol, its ok and safe. But if you are consuming this tab more thatn 3-4 months per month then you. Probably need some aother medication which is more specific for your headache.

Dear lybrate-user, you must be suffering from a migraine variant or a cluster headache. You can take present medications once in while for your headaches. However, please consult a doctor to assess the cause of headache and finalize the treatment plan, as ignoring it may lead to a chronic problem. Apart from medications, you can make certain lifestyle modifications to reduce the frequency and severity of headaches, such as - having a good sleep and healthy diet, drinking enough water, avoid alcohol and smoking, avoid processed and preserved foods, reduce your screen time (mobile/laptop), and avoid using excessive bright screen. All the best.
