Ways to relieve headaches?!
Question: I have a horrible headache that has been bothering me since this morning. I took alive around 1:00 pm and it is now about 8 hours later and has not worked at all. I have tried laying in a dark room but with 3 kids it's kind of hard to have the house stay quiet. I also tried a cold wash cloth. Nothing has worked and it seems to be getting worse. I just need a rather quick way to get rid of this terrible headache.
All answers are appreciated.

You have the same problem my mom has had. The headache is probably due to stress. What mom drinks a lot of tea and water to get rid of the headache. I've also told her to take aspirin every two hours and she says it works. Hope this helps.
When I have a bad headache like that I take 3 Ibuprofen, drink a caffeinated drink (coffee, tea, Pepsi, Coke, etc.) and eat a candybar. The combination of the ibuprofen, caffeine and sugar seems to do the trick very quickly.
Squeeze the region between your thumb and your pointer finger on both sides for approximately 40 seconds and wait until the pain is relieved. It does not work all the time esp on migraines but it works on tension headaches.
I would suggest as above, drinking water and tea or even coffee. My pharmacy professor said to me that you should have whatever kind of caffeine you don't usually have, so coffee if you normally don't drink it, or tea if you don't ususally drink it. I use rx meds for headache, so I hope you get better without that need.
A drop each of lavender and peppermint oil on your head can help quickly if you have those available.
If you are in cold country use all warm things.
If you have cough/cold body hot water bath will help.
Massage and exercise in front of morning sun is good thing, pl try.
Pl try simple acupressure given below for immediate relief.
If it fails you will have to go for Acupuncture.
There is hardly any medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for RA, OA, Back ache, Ear ache/ringing, Stomach ache and almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, WORRY, sadness, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation; drug side effects, stress, bad smell, TV & COMPUTER SOMETIMES, Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy, BODY CONSTITUTION etc are their causes.
None of them can be treated with medicine.
Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment.
I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Pain killers don't treat the pain but we loose the sense of pain for some time; in that duration our body itself treats sometime and credit goes to meds.
The useless drugs have tremendous power of side effects like liver/kidney failures, ulcer, inflammation of intestines and lot more.
Avoid late sleeping if possible; worry, tension, spicy foods, sour fruits, stale bakery foods, SMOKING and alcohole.
Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits like dates, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help if cough is not there.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it is very strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point (with round tipped pen/jimmy) 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.
For forehead/eye pain the points are in front of nails on the finger tips or 3-7 mm below.
It may disappear naturally too.

Try pinching the soft spot between your thumb and forefinger on your left hand. You'll know you have the right spot when you hit that nerve. Hold there for 15 seconds.
If you can get it, Head On works really well.
