Brief Answer:
Naproxen should help

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. I would insist your son to take Aleve (Naproxen) 500 mg one or two tablets together as per requirement. It should relieve his headache. However, he needs to see a doctor and get the underlying cause detected. The underlying issue needs to be addressed.
