Is It Safe To Take Vocodin For Severe Pain On The Right Side Of The Head?

I have a massive headache after getting my tattoo. I have gotten many tattoos in the past, but this the first time I ve had this problem. It s a sharp pain on the right side of my head. No dizziness but I m extremely nauseous. I ve taken 800mg of ibuprofen but have not received any pain relief after 2 hours. Is it ok to take a Vicodin?

Thanks for the query.
You can take Vicodin safely. You can also try analgesics like tramadol.
If pain persists, you have to consult a physician and get evaluated. You might require a CT scan to look for any intracranial cause for the head ache.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
