Question
My child has a headache near the temples, it happened last year and an EEG showed no issues. This year, it’s happening again. A nasal CT scan revealed rhinitis and small cysts, with one nostril not breathing well. The child felt better after taking medication for rhinitis, but the headache returned after the medication was finished. What should I do?
Answer
Based on the description, the child’s headache may be related to sinusitis. It is recommended to visit the hospital’s otolaryngology department for further examination, including measuring body temperature and undergoing a brain CT or MRI for further diagnosis. If the headache is severe, consider treatment with mannitol infusion. In serious cases, surgical treatment may be required.
