What do i do for bad headaches?

Answer:
You should probably go to a doctor to try and target the source of your headaches. They can be caused by a number of factors. In the mean time, go to your local health food store like an Elephant Pharmacy or Whole Foods, I think Trader Joe's might even carry it... and pick up this thing called Migrastick. It's all natural, peppermint %26 lavender oils that you rub on your temples and forehead. It REALLY helps me.

Also, stay hydrated and get lots of quiet time %26 rest. Make sure you're eating right and try to take inventory of things that might be stressing you out.

Taking a couple ibuprofen and lying down in a quiet, dark room for about 30 minutes usually works for me. But, if you get headaches everyday for more than a week or two, you should see a doctor. Frequent headaches can be a sign of a more serious condition.

I take BC Powders for mine but the best bet in preventing them is to lay off sugar.at least that has worked for me some what...

Excedrin... the headache medicine

Drink water - you might be dehydrated.
Take a hot shower - that usually helps esp. if you have a tension headache.
Take a painkiller...the one that is best for you.
Rest for a bit until your head stops hurting so much.

If you get headaches often, you might want to ask your doctor about them.

what to do depends on what kind of headaches you have. If it is just a normal headache some tylenol or advil should subside the pain within an hour or so. Something more serious like a migraine would require a migraine-specific prescription. It is important that you see doctor if your headaches don't go away or accompanied by neurological symptoms.

the most important thing, you should't use aspirin for your all headaches. if you have terrible headache then use medicine.. (my recommendation is Apranax, minoset or novalgine) if you are using glasses and they are not on your face, just use them. bad eyes causes headaches too. but you shouldn't use those painkillers in your every headache

Do you have high blood pressure that you know of? High blood pressure that is left untreated can cause persistent headaches. Go have your blood pressure checked at your doctor. While you are waiting to get an appointment with your doctor, go to the pharmacy and use the blood pressure machine they have. I have high blood pressure headaches that make me sick to my stomach. When I get them it reminds me I haven't taken my meds. My headaches are normally at the back of my head.
