Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concern. It seems he has high intracranial pressure,you should perform EEG. I also recommend to check his BP,because low BP due eg.heat wave can cause headache. After infection please check blood analysis to exclude anemia.
I suggest -
-Paracetamol or Ibuprofen 1 tablet once a time
Hope it helps.
Wish your child good health
