headache, help!

It really depends on the type of headache you have. IF it starts in the base of your neck I found that yoga helps. If it's on both sides of the front of your head I gently squeeze on the pressure points by my temple. Also going to the chiropractor for an adjustment can help relieve the pain.

Normally when I have a headache I take Extra Strength Tylenol and have a nap. I have two kids here so I have a headache all the time, hehe. What also works is a backrub to get to those pressure points. Do you have a boyfriend to do that or should I start packing my bags?

I think doing proper yoga can solve your problem.

wow nobody had told you about EXEDRIN MIGRAINE at walgreens or wal-mart... or if you smoke try marihuana smoked or in tea!!!its great to kill headaches .....yeah,well,,,and get you arrested too!!!!!!!!

I have headaches too oftelny, you don't have too much things to do. This is what i do. I try to take a shower a cold one and after that i take a pill for headache and to be sure that i will pass the headache i go and take a nap for something around 2-3 hours. And when i wake up i am new and refreshed as a little baby. Good luck!

Oh no! come on! don't tell me we the same problem. I have this for years that I have to take paracetamol tablets wherever I go. At one point I thought it was my eyes that cause it so I changed glasses but the pain remained. Pain relievers give temporary relief but still I can't get rid of it. A friend suggested relaxation, but it didn't give a permanent cure. So here I am with my paracetamols. By the way, medicated balms also help but I found the scent annoying especially when I am in public places.

how about your doctor's advices?you could get improved by taking some recipes:gastrodia tuber (tianma) stewed with a dove, or with some sparrow (sorry, not so sure if you eat dove or not).

I suffer migraines and have found that ice just makes my pain worse. Coldness or ice seem to be the common remedy. But it does not work for me. A hot shower with the water beating on my head helps take the edge off. Laying down with my head on a heating pad has also helped. Try not to take the medications that say for stress or migraines because they have caffeine in them. When you drop from the caffeine, you will get a rebound headache. If the pills with the caffeine help or you were desperate and took one, follow it up with regular Motrin a couple hours after to ward off the rebound headache. Hope some of this helps! :)

take a tablet with caffeine maleate, definitely you will get rid from headache. trust me i m a clinical pharmacist.............

dont ever take any medicine .if its too strong apply a wet towel on the head.pranayama is the best method .other 1 is close 1 nose and inhale through the other and check which 1 is blocked .normal headache are due to lack of oxygen to the cells. so try breathing out hard through the blocked nose. did u know that the nose switches its breathing pattern every 1 and a quarter hours.

I suffer from headaches and migrains a lot so here are a few suggestions. Take bengay (or another lintiment like icyhot, deep heat) and rub it on your temples and on the back of your neck. If you have tried headache medicine and it doesn't work try taking something for the sinus'. It could be sinus pressure and you don't know it. Coffee or chocolate can help with a headache. It's the caffiene in them that works. Most migraine medicines have caffiene in them. Chamomille tea or Sleepytime Tea. Drink a cup and then take a nap. The tea helps you to relax. Finally use like an eye mask, they sell them everywhere they have gel in them and you keep them in the fridge. Put it on and lay down. Sleep always does wonders. Hope you feel better soon.

Several things to try would be lying down without a pillow and try to rest and close your eyes and try to sleep, either on your stomach or back. Try covering your eyes with your hands when you lie down. Also try splashing cold water on your face and neck. Tie a scarf around you head and try various degress of tightness. I know this all sounds weird, but I don't like taking Tylenol or aspirin since my stomach gets upset. I had to try alternatives and they seem to work for me.

I am one who gets a bout of headaches very regularly. I have tried all sorts o remedies to get it off my head. First and foremost I sleep in a room which is pitch dark no lights at all, with an ice pack over my head. After some time I apply a paste of cinnamon powder on the area of the headache. This may burn a bit but eventually it will help ease the pain.

Maybe it's a sinus headache. they are real bad and hard to get rid of. I use natural sinus medicines I order off of the net. they usually work good for me. If it's a migrain you need to take something exspecially for migrain.

I say, There's the door don't slam it on your way out. Only kidding! I usually take Tylynol extra strenght or I will go relax somewhere quiet. Hope this helps?

Someone posted the other day saying she has good luck by applying ice to forehead and temples, leaving it a few minutes (probaboy no more than 10) then removing it for awhile. Others apply warm pack to the back of the neck. My favorite OTC med for headaches that are not sinus related is a store brand that combines aspirin, acetaminophen and caffeine. Sometimes they call it migraine relief, sometimes headache relief, and sometimes body pain relief, just look for those ingredients. Sinus related, caffeine and guifensin (Mucinex type pills) a decongestant and or antihistamine. I find that since I have increased magnesium in my diet I get fewer headaches. I take a supplement, and eat more seafood, nuts , and beans. I know that will not help right now, but maybe in the long run. If all else fails, try to get some extra sleep.
