A member asked:
Severe headaches on right side of head, more like stabbing pain. no tumors, tried ibuprofen and tramadol. only works for an hour.what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hemicrania: Diagnosis of headache type should lead to a specific headache therapy. Common migraine and cluster headaches respond to different therapies than hemicrania. Your starting point would be a neurological consultation. Treatments for cluster include lithium and oxygen. Hemicrania responds to indomethacin. Migraine has specific therapies depending on the type and frequency.
