Constant Watery Eyes, Migraines From The Age Of 34, 53 Yrs Old Now. Any Relation Between The Two ?

Sir, I am 53 years now. My eyes used to get always watery from age 12-13 and is continuing. I have seen doctors for this and there is no problem according to them. From age 34 i have migraine . At present i take medicines for that; but still i have to resort to pain killers at least three days a week. Could you pl. tell me whether there is any connection between the two problems ? Regards, AAAAAA

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

There is no connection between watering of eyes and migraine.

Migraine is a chronic disease and needs long-term treatment.

If you get more than two episodes of headache in a month, you should start preventive medications, such as beta blockers, flunarizine, topiramate, divalproex, etc.

Frequent intake of pain killers may have adverse effects on kidneys and liver, and may cause gastritis, so, you should limit them to 10-15 maximum in a month. If you use preventive medications, the need to take pain killers would also reduce.

Wishing you good health,
