So I've been dealing with these migraine headaches lately, and my doctor told me to use Naxdom 500 only when I actually have a headache. But here's the thingI've been taking it twice a day for the past three days because the headaches just won't quit. Should I have been sticking to just once a day, or am I handling this the right way? It just feels like they're not going away.

Naxdom-500, containing Naproxen, is typically prescribed for migraine headaches as needed, with a usual dosage of 1-2 tablets (500mg) per day, but not exceeding 1250mg in 24 hours.

I'm a chartered accountancy student who's prepping for my final exams. I tackled my first attempt in May after a hardcore four-month study spree. But right before that, in April, I started getting these chronic headaches that only went away after long naps. Now, I'm gearing up for my second attempt in November, and those headaches are back again. They really hit me hard on the sides and the lower back of my skull. I've made sure to get an eye test done, and everything's fine there, no need for specs. I'm at a bit of a loss here. Any insights on what might be causing these headaches and how I can manage them?
Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) and Treatment for Dog Bite_ Since you were bitten by a dog two years ago and received a tetanus injection one year ago, here are some suggestions: *Immediate Action* 1. *Wound Care*: Ensure the wound is clean and healed. If you notice any signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, or pus, seek medical attention. 2. *Rabies Risk Assessment*: If you haven't already, consult a doctor to assess the risk of rabies transmission. Even if it's been two years, it's essential to evaluate the risk. *Medical Consultation* 1. *Consult a Doctor*: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a specialist, such as an infectious disease expert. 2. *Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP)*: Depending on the doctor's assessment, you may require PEP, which includes a series of injections with rabies immunoglobulin and a rabies vaccine. *Additional Precautions* 1. *Monitor for Symptoms*: Keep an eye out for any symptoms of rabies, such as fever, headache, or flu-like symptoms. 2. *Maintain Good Hygiene*: Ensure you practice good hygiene, including washing your hands regularly, especially after coming into contact with animals. *Important Notes* 1. *Time-Sensitive*: Rabies PEP is most effective when administered promptly. If you're advised to undergo PEP, follow the recommended schedule. 2. *Individualized Advice*: Consult a doctor for personalized advice, as the risk of rabies transmission and the need for PEP depend on various factors, including the dog's vaccination status and the severity of the bite.
