Brief Answer:
Examination & Investigations will guide

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Appropriate treatment demands accurate diagnosis
And diagnosis demands examination / and often investigation too
It is wiser to look and see rather than wait and guess / and experiment…

There are several classes of drugs and several drugs in each class
One may start with simple Paracetamol / Over The Counter (OTC) Non-Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) like Ibuprofen can be next / antidepressants and/or a few anti-epileptic drugs to reduce pain threshold / opium analogues like tramadol / tryptans for migraine – the list is rather long!

Get yourself examined - by a Neurologist / get investigated / get appropriate prescription -
The treating doctor alone could conclude better, based on the total clinical picture

Good luck
God bless you
