What should I do about a reoccurring headache???!
Question: Hi, I am a 14 year old girl and I have been haveing headaches for a week. I usually get them if my eyes need a new prescription of glasses, but I got new glasses last month. My headaches usually start from the back of my head and travel forward towards my temple and around my eyes. Being in the sun just makes my head hurt worse. I use to get migraines when I was younger but I haven't gotten any recently *knocks on wood*. There is not a certain time when the headaches happen they just occur randomly. I take ibuprofen but that does not seem to help at all.
What could be causing this, and do I need to visit a doctor?

You need to see a doctor and get a diagnosis. Recurring headaches can be hereditary. There are specific medications for this. The kind of doctor you're looking for will specialize in this or at least be a "neurologist."
Are you drinking enough water? Try drinking at least 8-10 glasses of water for a couple of days to see if that helps. I never get headaches, but when I do, I just drink tons of water. Feel better..
i feel for ya! we have chronic headaches in my family. they suck!
my first repsonse is that your glasses might be too strong. you need time to get adjusted to them. but if you have headaches all the time, i would see if your dr recommends a CT scan or MRI of your head to see if anything is going on. i currently have a horrible migrane myself...so i feel your pain.
good luck & feel better!
and see your doctor!
Reasons are many, pl see what suits you.
If you are in cold country use all warm things.
Pl try cold water bath and observe if in hot country, if pain increases use warm.
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.
