OWW!! My head!?!


Question: I currently have a POUNDING headache that makes my skull feel like it is about to just crack in half. It is impossible to sleep and even if I fell asleep this INSTANT I would have to wake up 5 hours from now anyway. There's no way I'm going to get any sleep and it feels like my headache isn't going to go away anytime soon.

I'm still in HS & when I tell my parents how I got no sleep & how my head is throbbing they are going to say, "Well why didn't you get up and take something for it?" They still don't understand that I really dislike medicine. Is there anything I can do?

Oh, & my temp feels high to me but I heard that your temp always feels higher to you than it really is? (We don't have a working thermometer.)

Your temp will feel higher to you. They are right about that. lol...
As afar as your head, try drinking some orange juice. Concentrate if you have it. That sometimes helps, especially if it is a tension headache.
There is nothing wrong with taking Tylenol or Motrin, unless you are allergic or have adverse reactions to them. They are OTC relievers and can help immensely when needed.
You can also try a warm shower or lay down and close your eyes, even if you don't sleep, it will relax your eye and facial muscles.
Hope you feel better soon! :)

I think you should consult it to a doctor

get off computer and wake up your mom.take some advil for petes sake.
when my daughter has a bad night, i let her go in late to school.

You can tell your parents you are pregnant and don't want to take the meds because you don't want a baby with three eyes.

You might want to check out the headache by a doctor. There can be many reasons for a headache like bad diet, not enough sleep, brain tumor, chemical imbalance in your head, flu, and other reasons. Once you find the reason you might be able to take care of it without the meds.
