A member asked:
Can i take previously prescribed valium (for anxiety) for a 3-day headache that is stemming from my neck and shoulder muscles, or am i better off asking my doctor to prescribe something for that specifically?

Headache care: It is always wisest to consult your doctor before taking a medicine. Your doctor might prescribe a different medication or simple lifestyle changes without medicine to address your pain. Good luck!
