Hi,
Is he taking any medication? Sometimes, few medications can cause it. Do consult with a medical specialist for proper workup to find the cause, and management could be easy. Moreover, anxiety symptoms (headache) are quite common after acute febrile illness. You can also consult with a psychiatrist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
