Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Sudden onset
severe headache needs to be investigated. As of now, you may try giving him another tablet of
paracetamol. If that does not work, you may give him an
ibuprofen or
diclofenac tablet.
If the headache still persists, he should be taken to ER and a
CT scan of the brain should be done to exclude a brain haemorrhage (bleeding inside the brain).
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
