I have a really bad headache. What should i do?!


Question: I have a really bad headache. What should i do.?
Answers:
First, determine the likely cause of it.

And keep in mind that the pain is from the nerves and tissues surrounding the brain, not the brain itself.

If it is from lack of sleep, get some sleep.
Drinking.? Smoking.? Drugs.? Stop.
Eyestrain.? Staring at the monitor too long.?
Exposure to chemicals or other enviromental factors.?

Most of my headaches are due to my sinuses. I find that by closing my mouth and pinching my nose shut and basically trying suck air out of my head seems to work sometimes.

Extra strength Excederins are great.

wrap some icecubes in a towel like a headband, lay down for a while with it across your forehead and eyes. Focus on a happy memory. If your pain is from stress or tension, "thinking the pain away" can work.Health Question & Answer

How bad.? If its been going on for days, or you are nauseous or can't see straight, go to the hospital. If you haven't taken anything yet, try something over the counter and LOTS and LOTS of water. Many headaches are a symptom of dehydration. Not major dehydration, just the result of not drinking enough water or drinking too much soda, coffee, alcohol or other dehydrating beverages. Beware of these over the counter "migraine" medications though. They usually contain caffeine and if caffeine is causing the problem, more will only make it worse. If you don't have any caffeine issues, it could help. Smoking pot always cures headaches too.Health Question & Answer

Take some excedrin with lots of water and go in a dark room. Try to sleep it off. If that's not enough, you may have migraines and will need a prescription. I get them and I take Imitrex. But mine are severe. I lose vision and feeling in the left half of my body and see wavy lines. also, I get really nauseous and sick. Stay away from caffeineHealth Question & Answer
