Thasnks for posting this question in HCM
I am a neuologist
I want to tell you that any particular symptoms or sets of symptoms in medicine can have multiple reasons. For example headache can be due to various causes like
migraine,
cluster headache, problem in the brain like
brain tumor, infection, problems in the blood vessels of the brain. Further the presence or absence of certain symptoms can narrow down the diagnostic possibilities. Coming to your case you have not posted regarding the presence of associated symptoms like the duration ohf headache,
vomiting, weakness opf hands or legs or any other associated neurological symptoms. How ever, you have mentioned that he looks pale. Under this cisrcumstances you need to do some blood tests to find out his
hemoglobin and if it is low other tests to findout the exact cause of low hemoglobin. Low hemoglobin ite slef can make some one feel dizzy. A detailed neurological examination of your child will tell us if he needs a scan or not. I will advise you to get a
CT scan of the head as he has anemia too. These test will help us to establish the cause and we can deal accordingly. Best will be to meet a local physician or
neurologist who will arrange all these for you. The traetment of this condition will largely depend upon the cause rather than giving simple analgesics without evaluation.
Hope this clarifies
