I get tension headaches alot. I've found that an ice pack on the back of your neck or at your temples helps. Rubbing peppermint, spearmint or eucalyptus oil on your temples helps too. Sometimes all it takes is lying on your back in a dark room, and de-stressing yourself. I also hate taking pills so I know how you feel!
Look up accu-pressure points for headaches. There is one on the web of your hand between your thumb and index finger that works well for me.
Popping an Advil or Tylenol once in awhile is easier sometimes
im sorry i have had that before
this is what has helped me:
1. TAKE A NAP
2. Drink lots of water
3.lay down watch tv and put a cold, wet washcloth on your forehead
4. still does not work? Visit a Doctor cause it CAN be treated this is what helps me and i hope it can help you
If you can find a quit, dark place, go there. Drink 24 oz's of water, & lay down & take long deep breaths for a few minutes. I wet a wash cloth, & wrap it around my neck. I guess it cools the blood going to the head. Seems to work.
Not sure if you can benifit from this, but, but there's science that backs up that having an orgasm or two can really help a headache too... so, back to that dark room... lol
this is not good with those headaches but have you ever tried that new stuff that is called HEADON i tell you this eally works for hrs and its not anything that can hurt you i even got the one who says active on and is for joints, i never thought it would help but then i was in so much pain, i bought it and it really works cant beat it for 4 dollars and it takes away the pain, good luck and happy new year
