Brief Answer:
Further details needed
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. However, I would need you to answer the following questions:
* How long have you been having the headaches?
* Any specific aggravating or relieving factors?
* Is there an aura prior to the headache?
* Does it affect only one half of the head?
* How severe is it?
There could be a number of causes of headache. It could be due to cervical spondylosis or could be due to causes like migraine or cluster headache. Taking Aleve (naproxen) 500 mg one or two tablets together when needed should provide relief.
I would await your response. Let me know if I could help further.
Regards
