A member asked:
I have a broken blood vessel in my eye, is it better to take tylenol or ibuprofen for a headache that i have right now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tylenol: only as needed for pain. Ibuprofen can prolong or extend bleeding; however most "broken blood vessels in the white of the eye ( subconjunctival hemorrhage ) are self limited and benign unless your vision is affected.

I tested positive for Covid last week and today is the last day of my isolation period. However, Ive had an extremely bad headache since yesterday. Sharp stabbing pain on the left side of my head near my temple. Takes my breath away when it happens. Neither Advil nor Tylenol have seemed to work for it. What should I do? Headache?
