What Is Causing My Daughter S Recurring Headaches?
Hello sir, My daughter suffers from daily headaches. They started at age about three years back. she is now 11 years old. what could be the cause. Most importantly, she has photosensitivity during these headaches. There have been no problems in her vision. Please suggest how would I go further.
Daily headaches are very disruptive! I'm sorry to hear this. Since she has been having headaches for 3 years, it is not likely to be because of a tumor because this would have gotten worse. The fact that she has photo-sensitivity would lead to the diagnosis of migraine. She should see a neurologist to try a daily preventive medication. There are several to choose from and try.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
