Patient Query

Hello Doctor,


I've had a headache, felt light-headed, can't focus, and feel weak since 2 pm, despite taking Excedrin earlier. This is unusual for me. Any advice?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.


It's important to address your concerns when experiencing headaches, lightheadedness, and weakness.

Your symptoms could be due to dehydration. Drinking water and replenishing electrolytes can help alleviate them. Aim for at least eight glasses of water a day and prioritize quality sleep, aiming for 7-9 hours per night.

Stress may also contribute to your symptoms. Consider relaxation techniques or speaking with a therapist to manage stress effectively.

If your symptoms persist, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.


Thanks.
