Suggest Treatment For Severe Headache
I have been waking up with headaches everyday for the past month. Today was no different. I felt fine outside of my headache all day. AN right after I ate dinner I started feeling sick like I am going to have a fever. This sadly happens about once a week. I take a multi vitamin and eat healthy but to no avail. Ohh I am a 36 yr old male who has sadly smoked for 28 years of my life. Drank everyday for 15 years and stopped a year ago cold turkey with no issues. I drink plenty of fluids. umm what could be causing my headaches an constant fevers?

Hi thanks for contacting health care magic.
You have your symptoms once a week only.Means episodic headache is present.so here most likely seems that could be tension headache or migraine.
Whenever such attack severe you can take paracetamol or brufen like analgesic.
Yoga , muscle relaxatation useful.
Avoid exposure to bright light and noisy environment.
Take enough 8 hour sleep.
Regular two times diet taken.
Avoid stress.
And mainly avoid smoking and alcohol strictly.
Lavender oil topical application is good herbal remedy .
If condition worsening with weight loss also hyperthyroidism ruled out by thyroid profile.
You have been smoking for many years so rule out hypertension by measuring blood pressure.If present treated accordingly.
Take care.
