What should I do about headaches after a traumatic brain injury?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. How should I deal with headaches after a traumatic brain injury?

Doctor's answer:

After a traumatic brain injury, the most likely sequelae to recur are pain. If this type of headache reappears, it is important to maintain a calm mood and ensure sufficient deep sleep. If the headache recurs repeatedly, oral painkillers may also be needed, preferably oral drugs that stabilize brain decomposition metabolism. It can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine based on syndrome differentiation. Generally, oral Nao Fu Xin tablets or capsules can be used for symptomatic treatment, and traditional Chinese medicine preparations can also be taken.
