Many people have been telling me to have coffee as this helps in relieving headaches. I have never tried this and have no idea if this really works. I love drinking coffee and will not mind taking it if this is for sure a remedy. Does drinking coffee really help in treating headaches? Well it is now time for me to enjoy my morning coffee. Have Good night/Good morning everyone

I dont think it is because I'm having a headache at the moment and drinking my (cold) coffee hasn't helped me at all.. Good morning to you from Australia...or should I say good afternoon to you...

I have heard that in some cases it does.. there is a medication I think it was Excedrin Migraine and one of it's main ingredients was caffeine.. so I think Yes.

@Nawsheen Yes, I tried that Excedrin Migraine once or twice and the caffeine in it just gave me anxiety

Oh yes some of the medicines used to treat migraines contain caffeine. Maybe it depends on the person. Thanks for your feedback

@minx267 oh no. Then it is better for you not to take it. Maybe there are other alternatives

It's the caffeine in the coffee that helps get rid of headaches.

It may help some. But not others. Just like chocolate helps me but hurts others.

Yes you are right coffee might not help everyone. It depends on the person. By chocolate do you mean dark chocolate?

For me, hot cocoa is proven not coffee. Maybe any hot drinks could help but cocoa is more effective for me.

I am not sure if it is a cure for headaches. But I think it can make our heart beats fast. Regardless, I am a coffee drinker too.

I have actually heard the opposite - that it gives you headaches. No effect on me.

I often find that drinking coffee when I have a headache makes it worse. But I think that's because coffee tends to dehydrate me and not because of the caffeine. Lots of pain relievers have added caffeine in them. So it must help some folks.
