This looks like a stress and screen-related headache. Your normal reports are a good sign.
Simple steps:
Avoid studying on phone. Use printed notes
Take a 5-minute break every 25–30 minutes
Do 30 minutes walking or exercise daily
Do neck and shoulder stretches
Sleep at the same time every day (7–8 hours)
Reduce spicy food and sugar for some time
Medicines may stop working after a while, so meet your doctor for a review.
Most important: routine + relaxation will help more than medicines alone.

It’s very common for mental distress to manifest as physical symptoms—what we call the mind-body connection. Your nervous system is likely in a state of 'high alert,' which affects everything from your sleep to your digestion.
As a psychiatrist, I look at the whole picture—your physical health, your environment, and your neurochemistry. Understanding these links is the first step toward relief. I invite you to a consultation where we can break down these symptoms scientifically and build a management plan that works for your specific lifestyle.

Looks like Tension headache with screen strain and stress triggers.
Try: regular breaks (20-20-20 rule), reduce screen time, restart physical activity, improve posture, and manage stress/sleep.
If meds helped earlier but stopped working, you may need dose adjustment or change—consult a physician.
