I am doing my work infront of the computer for 8 hours and now I still have an hour to finish yet I feel a sudden tension in my head. I am having headache. I really hate having this. It is not the usual ache since I now wanted to hit my head due to the so much pain it gave me. Anyone of you guys know a fast and reliable way to cure headache. Oh please tell me since this is deadly aching! Thanks for all the help!

there are fast relief medicines for headache you can try an ibuprofen(alaxan) mefenamic acid (ponstan) you can also try placing a cold compress on your head but that will not be comfortable for you since you are working in front of the computer..you may also try closing your eyes for a few minutes..maybe it is your eyes that is troubling you

in china, there is an old method to deal with it, massage the second arthrosis of your forefinger, and the first arthrosis of your little finger.

I am also doing my work in front of the computer for 8 to 10 hours. I aslo feel a sudden tension in my head. Self-massage is a simple and effective way to relieve a tension headache. Step1 Get comfortable. Lie back on a reclining chair or sofa. Step2 Dim the lights. Bright light can intensify a headache. Step3 Begin your massage with the areas above and around your ears. Place your hands on either side of your head; using the pads of your fingers,press down gently and move the skin back and forth about 1 inch. Step4 Move your scalp rather than sliding your fingers across the skin. Step5 Place the pads of your fingers on your temples. Press down gently and move your fingers in small circles. Step6 Repeat this technique on the back of your neck. Pay particular attention to the area at the base of the skull. Step7 Continue to massage your scalp in this way until you've covered your entire head. For areas that feel tense, try this acupressure technique: Grasp your skin between your thumb and forefinger and squeeze for 20 seconds. Release pressure for 10 seconds but do not remove your hand. Repeat this four times.
