Hi dear!

Thanks for consulting the Physicians at HealthCare Magic. I have worked through your case thoroughly, and I can easily realize your health worries. Being your physician, I reassure you not to worry as things will settle down very soon.

it may be due to sinusitis in this age group very common though. Let his blood pressure checked and full physical examination by a physician. Vomiting is another problem that shows maybe he has some vertigo issues. you should take him to an ENT specialist for checkup. may be he has a problem with his eye pressure. A very common problem in children of this age group is Decreased vision of one or both eyes, and parents and baby dont know it. please ask his physician to check if he has normal eyesight. if not go for glasses. headache of this nature may be due to this reason. I have seen many patients with this complaint and when i went for vision test; it was there. glasses improved it 100%

May you get very well soon and have a wonderful time ahead. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback to help us assist you in a better way.



Regards!
