Suffering From Migraine Daily. New Carpet Installed In Classroom. Is This Due To Carpets?

My husband has had a migraine almost every day this week. He is a middle school teacher & has a new carpet that has been installed in his classroom. We are wondering if the new carpet might be the cause of his sudden migraines, and if so, how long will it take for something like that to get better? He went to the doctor today, who has ordered an MRI, so we will soon find out if there is anything more serious going on. HOpefully not. In the meantime, school kids come on Monday & he would like to be able to do his job without dealing with migraine issues.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
In my opinion this is not a migraine but headache is there and reason is no doubt newly carpet.
This carpet develops allergy to your husband and due to this allergy he is feeling pain in the head and discomfort.
It will take some time 10-15 days to adjust new conditions.
Till your husband can use some anti allergy medicine along pain killer.
In my opinion no need of any consultation .
Good luck.
