What Causes Severe Headache On Left-sided Temple Area And Nausea?
At 4am last night I suddenly woke up with a severe headache, particularly focused on my temples and the left side of my head. I took some pain killers but they didn t help, I then began to feel very nauseous, I m not sure whether this was due to the pain or something different. Should I be worried? I have never experienced this before
The symptoms seem to be related to migraine. Migraine can cause pain in the temple area and also nausea. I suggest to avoid factors that can trigger the symptoms such as strong lights. I also suggest to use painkillers such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three time s a day. I recommend to rest, drink liquids and eat a healthy diet.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
