What Causes Nausea, Headache And Cold Post Consumption Of Advil?
Hello Doctors.. I have been having a problem with migraine but it occurs about 3 times a year only. But the other day, my migraine hits and I took advil, slept for 6 hours and the headache is gone. But today when I woke up around 11 am, I felt a throbbing pain on my right eyebrow near the nose-bridge and if I press it the pain is excruciating, When I stood up I felt nauseated and I wanted to vomit. I took another advil and went back to bed. I slept for 2 hours and the headache is less but still there. I wanted to take sinutab because I felt like I caught a cold as well as I m having a running nose yesterday. Can you give some advice? Thank you so much.

Hello
This sounds like a sinus infection and, in that case, it isn't advisable to take a decongestant like sinutab.
You can try a Netipot or a saline nasal irrigation system but if this continues for more than three days you need to see your doctor for a course of antibiotics
