Patient's question:
The child has a headache near the temples. Last year, when the pain occurred, an EEG was done and there were no issues. This year, the pain returned, and a nasal CT scan revealed rhinitis with a small cyst, along with one nostril being blocked. The child has been taking medication for rhinitis for five days and said it has improved. Today, the medication was finished, and the headache returned again. What should be done?Doctor's answer:
According to the description, the child's headache is considered to be related to a nasal cyst. It is recommended to go to the hospital's otolaryngology department for further and careful examination. Measure the body temperature, perform a brain CT or MRI for further diagnosis, and if severe, surgical treatment should be timely administered. If the headache is severe, intravenous administration of mannitol can be considered.
