Hello,
Thank you for posting.
The aymptoms you have mentioned are mostly suggesting migraine headache in which you will get one sided headache associated with vomiting.I advice consulting a neurologist so that they will prescribe you prophylactic treatment like betabocker to prevent frequent attacks.For accute attack as there association with vomiting also I suggest you to a take a combination of analgesic and antiemetic. Thank you.
