Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

The symptoms as severe headache and nausea (pukish feeling) can be indicative of primary headache like migraine or a tension headache.

Migraine may present with headache for more than seventy-two hours and is often associated with vomiting, dizziness and visual problems and is often triggered by triggering factors like diet or stress.

For such headaches, try these lifestyle modifications:

1) Go to sleep and wake up at the same time each day. Do not skip any meals.

2) Exercise regularly (daily if possible) and limit stress through regular exercise and relaxation techniques. Yoga and meditation will also help.

3) Avoid bright or flashing lights and wear sunglasses if sunlight is a trigger.

4) Identify and avoid food that trigger headaches by keeping a headache and food diary and limit caffeine consumption to less than two caffeine-containing beverages a day.

5) You can also try over the counter pain killers like aspirin or acetaminophen. If still the symptoms persist, then please consult a physician for specific therapy.

Hope this answers your query. I will be available in case you have additional concerns.

Regards
