Brief Answer:
Possibly muscle tension headache.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I have noted your symptoms and they are suggestive of muscle tension headache.

You would benefit from taking PROTHIADEN tablets. It is usually taken at a dose of 25 mg once daily at nights.

In addition, you can use ETORICOXIB tablets 120 mg as and when necessary to relieve the headaches.

Both the drugs are prescription drugs. Please get them prescribed by your primary physician.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
