Patient's question:
Lately, I've had a terrible headache, and I almost have to take sleeping pills to fall asleep. This has been going on for a week, and it hasn't improved. What should I do about this week-long headache?Doctor's answer:
Recurring persistent headaches have even severely affected deep sleep. There is a possibility of neurogenic headaches, so it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to rule out the possibility of intracranial organic inflammation, such as intracranial lesions. Additionally, it is suggested to take oral neurotrophic nutrients and Chinese herbal blood-activating drugs, such as Zhengtian Wan, or oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
