Neurologist,  's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

First of all, I would like to reassure you that your symptoms are not suggestive of any serious neurological disease.

The most likely cause could be migraine or muscle tension headache.

You should consult a neurologist.

There are several good medications to treat your symptoms. In some cases, an MRI scan of brain would be needed.

I hope my reply has helped you.

I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
     
Best wishes,
