Brief Answer:
Tylenol would be a good medication!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this headache. I recommend you take Tylenol at doses recommended by your physician. Do not take more than 4g in 24hours. Rest, moderate exercise, healthy diet and sleep in a quiet environment would all be helpful in addressing this.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
