I have a severe headache for days ? what meds should i use ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doctor : Severe headache for days requires medical attention, meanwhile, OTC acetaminophen/NSAIDS, unless contraindicated, would help, read the labels carefully and don't exceed recommended dosage and duration, wish you well
