10 Jet Lag Symptoms
Symptom #6: Headache
One symptom of not having had enough sleep is a headache and, as such, it is also a fairly common symptom of jet lag. The headache in these circumstances is often described as a dull ache, and that the head generally feels heavy.
The headache should hopefully not be too unbearable, but it can still contribute to a difficult day. Painkillers may be able to help, but what you really need is for your circadian cycles to readjust. Most people can ride it out for a few days, although a doctor may be able to help if necessary.
