What to do if your child has a headache

In life, many children often have headaches. Parents will be more worried if their children have excessive headaches, because headaches will affect their children's studies. In addition, some children's headaches will cause nausea and vomiting, which will cause stomach diseases over time. Therefore, if parents find that their children often have headaches, they should take their children to treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition and causing serious diseases.

Headache without fever is most common in school-age children and adolescents. In recent decades, this situation has been particularly evident in children and has tended to increase. Basically, there are many possible causes that require further diagnosis by a doctor.

Tension-type headaches and migraines

Most recurring headaches can be classified as tension-type headaches and migraines. Tension-type headaches are the most common. This type of headache often starts in the neck and extends to the forehead, and the child will feel drowsy.

Migraines in children are the most severe form of headache, often occurring intermittently and occasionally accompanied by nausea and vomiting, and sensitivity to light, noise or smells. This type of migraine varies depending on individual constitution and condition.

Please let your child have a good sleep in a dim room, which can relieve migraine. During severe headaches, do not give your child anything to eat. Patience and rest can help relieve headaches. If ineffective, please seek medical attention immediately.
