What is the Best thing for Headaches?

Hello, My daughter is being treated for migraines.Her neurologist says if you have ever had a migraine then all of your headaches are migraines for the rest of your life, even if they are not that severe. I agree with you however, a migraine is a whole other thing!!!! I get them too. I usually take an acetaminophen, and ibuprofen and a small glass of soda or coffee with caffeine. Not too much caffeine as it can cause headaches. My favorite pain reliever is naproxen sodium. I also once heard to squeeze your big toe on the opposite side of the pain of the headache or both if needed. It has worked a few times!!! Good luck to you.

Stress is the culprit. Lack of children and government is the best thing to element headaches. I think meditation, dark room and soft music helps the most. Putting yourself in a peaceful spot.

my mom is a nurse and my tolerance for pain is not that good. whenever i have headaches or colds, she always insist that i will drink lots of water and have some rest. she is never dependent with medicines. but whenever it is needed, like the pain never goes away, that's the time that he or she will take some. i hope i am helpful in this discussion. cheers! =)

If you tried all those other things and nothing is working maybe you just need to sleep it away?

supposedly I will get a nice hot cup of chocolate and a tiny little nap.

when i get a headache i get a kind of sinus related headache and if you are going to go to sleep i would suggest trying some nyquil that has worked for me in past but i would only take it if you are going to go to bed cause it will make you sleepy

hi, I think the best thing to do when you have headache is go to have some sleep, relax yourself. I do this way. When I feel over oppressed, when there are too much work for me, when I met anything that I can not handle easily, I would feel headache, in this situation, I listen to some music, or sleep if allowed, sometimes i even ask for a leave, relax myself.. Why don't you have a try, get some better view!

i live in a place where hot and hunidity words are very common in the weather forcast...so most of the time people get exhausted if outside the home or office.so they have sometimes this headache problems here...most people take some tablets like paracetamol...when i have headache i drink a lot of water.after sometime i feel much better. if i am at home and have a headache with taking plenty of water i try a 1 hr of sleep...which is curing my by now...

Sometimes a fresh air can make a headache go away. The best is to relax and have a little walk outside. If it isn't possible, open a window and have some fresh air. Drink a glass of water and look away pointing eyes nowhere, don't look closely to things like a book, computer and TV. If these things don't help, have a pill against a headache. Of course, a massage from a partner always helps!

Hi, Atleast U know waht is causing Ur Headache(causative agent).Remove that(extra time ata stretch in front of screen), Ur headache will be gone.Hey,in 'Tension Headache"( as perur description,also said it is not Migrain)-it is ASPIRIN, not Paracetamol(better for fever) will work better. =Lahiri,Kolkata,India.

Sorry you are not feeling well. Things that seem to help my headachs are, getting a warm wash cloth and laying it across my forhead in a cool room, and just relaxing.. that doesn't happen much but does help. Applying pressure to my temples for a few seconds, and then rubbing them seems to help as well. I do hope you feel better soon!

When i have headache i always go to doctor and the doctor gives me any suggestion. My doctor gives me medicine rarely. He just gives me any advices. One of the good suggestion is to reduce eat any kind of meats. This is a simple factor why human can feel headache. It is caused when the blood has high level by meats. So if you want to reduce headache, eat more vegetables before the headache coming. Prevent is more good than taking care our health.

Get a warm , damp cloth and stick it on your head . thats one thing to try .

in my opinion,you can try go to rest sometime,maybe you have a lot press just like me.So you have to think a lot.From now on, you must learn how to deal with your life.Then all the things will be better soon!!What do you think?

Hi littletinker, Headaches are very common and you shouldn't worry more about it.But you should understand that headaches are only symptoms and real problem can be something different.So you should consult a doctor,if you get it often. There are certain tips that you can try yourself. First if the headache is due to tension,put off the work,take sufficient rest. If it is due to eye strain,switch off the lights,take rest in a dark room.If you get frequent eye strain,check your eye sight. If the headache is due to stagnated air,go out for a fresh air. Apart from this,you can have a cup of hot coffee,apply some pain relief cream and give a gentle massage. Last but not the least you can have some paracetamol tablet. I avoid taking any tablets for headaches.I only use external applications such as Vicks vaporub,axe oil,tiger balm etc.. Happy mylotting

i have this stick of herbs that i got at a health food store and i rub it on my forehead when i get a headache. i get them quite often and its a non medicinal way to cure a headache. its really quite good. its called a migra stick.

That last sentence hit the nail on the head. A nice coupling is usually the perfect cure for a headache. Doctors recently verified this!

A nap, some sleep can help. Willow is supposed to be beneficial. Did it start this morning, or after you started being active? If it continues, you might want to get your eyes checked out. When I get headaches, it is often associated with my eyes struggling to make sense out of what I see...Sometimes you don't realize there is a problem, until your head hurts.... Hope you feel better!

well for headache, i usually just have th paracetamol and sleep. i think sleep is the best thing for headache. may be u just need rest. so go and sleep for sometime. well take rest and dont sit next to the comp. eat properly. have lotsa water also. it shud be fine. massage ofcourse wud be good. i knw

Even 2 Paracetamol will not relief your headache that so easily. I'd like to recommend you ADVIL. Fast and easy. After wards try to have a good sleep. Possible you have this kind of headache because you lack of sleep at the same time lack of food intake. I advised you to eat your meal first then followed by ADVIL. For sure after you've sleep. Then the next thing you new. Your feel great and better! Happy lotting!
