Suggest Treatment For Sleeping Troubles And Constant Headache
Hi Good day, i just want to ask an advise on my 10 years old son who has a sleeping problem. He normally would wake up once or up to 4 times every night. This has been for more than 3 years now but recently it got worst as it is almost every night that he wakes me up to stay with him. He has a history of separation anxiety when he was 6 years old. My concern is he is also getting headches often sometimes will last for 2 to 3 days. He normally would complain on his right forehead and from the eyes. He wears eyeglasses for astigmatism and had his eyes tested recently as it was 2 consecutive days that he had double vision but result of his eyetest was fine. I am worried if anything serious.
Hi, Thanks for writing to Healthcare magic From your history I suspect you child may be having Migraine. Are you or his father having Migraine? Does he have aura, like some odd smell he feels, or some flashes of colour in front of his eyes, repeated vomitting, too irritated to watch light source? Try to avoid chocolates, soft drinks, too loud sounds, too flashy lights, late night sleeping. He needs to have adequate sleep for total 8 hours in a day Regards Dr Poonam
