Headache after swimming swallowed some chlorine water, 8 yr old?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Swimming headache: Not sure if chlorine water ingestion is the cause of the headache. If it is, observe, have him rest, given Acetaminophen or ibuprofen. If it is caused by another reason and not severe, the above approach should help as well.
