A member asked:

Everytime i wake up either in the morning or from a nap, i get a constant headache. is there something wrong and should i continue to take ibuprofen?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Headache : We all can get headache , we get worried when it is excessive and not experienced before . And certainly having ha every day is not normal , it is better to see your PCP for evaluation and irk up.
