Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Possible temporal arteritis or migraine. Anti-migraine medications may be helpful.
2. Get an ESR done along with a complete hemogram.
3. Hopefully he has no sinus problems. Need to rule out medications adverse effects. Need more clinical details along with lab reports and medication details for further opinion.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
