Question
The patient describes a symptom of intermittent headaches, which last for 2-3 minutes each time, with intervals of 20 minutes, and this condition persists for 2-3 weeks. This situation has been ongoing for 2-3 years, and the cause is unknown. The patient has not received any treatment and inquires about what detailed examinations should be conducted and what possible diseases might be involved.
Answer
It is recommended that the patient seek assistance from a local neurologist and take Xuefu Zhuyu Oral Liquid under the doctor’s guidance. Medications that may be effective include Cilpotal, Nimodipine, Danshen Tablets, Phenytoin Sodium, and Ramulus Corni Decoction. Additionally, it is important to avoid mental stress, ensure adequate rest and quality sleep, and prevent colds and fever that may trigger the headaches. Furthermore, it is suggested to try placing a strip of white radish peel on the solar plexus for 20 minutes each night, which can quickly relieve the headache. If the headache subsides, there is no need to continue the application.
