I have a headache and my head feels very heavy. What medicine should I take for relief?

For temporary relief from a headache and head heaviness, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like paracetamol (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen, following the package dosage instructions. Ensure you stay well-hydrated, rest in a quiet, dark room, and avoid screen time. A warm or cold compress on your forehead may also help. These symptoms are very common and often due to stress, fatigue, or sinus pressure. However, please consult a doctor if your headache is sudden and unusually severe, or is accompanied by fever, stiff neck, confusion, or vision changes. Rest well and take care.
