Suggest Treatment For Chronic Migraine Attacks And Nausea

I was diagnosed with chronic migraines. When I get them they will go away within 24hrs with rest. I have had this headach/migraine on the right side of my head for five days. I have taken all kinds of over the counter meds and it comes back. Nothing really takes the pain away it just lightens the pain. I m sick to my stomach, but I can still eat and keep it down. Have pains on my right side under the rib area however no fever. What could this be? Please help.

Hi.

I understand your concern .

Migraine has young onset / episodic / throbbing in nature / unilateral / associated with nausea and vomiting .

It occurs in episode interval.

Acute migraine can be treated with medicine like paracetamol and diclofenac / sumatriptan / almotriptan / nasal spray etc.

Best way is to prevent further episode .

Prophylactic medicines like flunarizine / amitriptiline / topiramate / sod valporate / magnesium valporate etc can help.

Investigation like EEG /fundus examination /CT scan / MRI will be useful to rule out other brain related pathology .

I hope I have answered your concern .

Still if you have a query then feel free to ask .

Thank you .
