Hi, thanks for asking from HCM. I can understand your concern. The headache could be due to severe back ache and stress due to it. As you mentioned, you felt dizzy. I think it was because of severe pain in back. The pain was severe in morning as back muscles were firm and not flexible in morning. Later on as you did activity, the muscles became flexible with increased blood supply. This would have given some relief. For back pain and headache, you should follow few tips - consult neurosurgeon - Apply painkiller gel like diclofenac over back thrice a day after prescription - You can apply hot fomentation over back - Take pain killer like diclofenac with paracetamol after proper prescription. - Avoid weight bearing, extreme movement over back. - Avoid bright light, sunlight, mental stress for giving relief in headache Hope it will help. Thanks.
