Answers:
I'd go to the doctor if you are getting frequent migraines/headches!. For now, try not to take pain meds such as asprin or tylenol b/c they can cause bounce-back headaches!. These bounce-back headaches are said to be hard to cure, and I know from personally experience wiht migraines, it is true!. Try to ice the top of your head, where most of the pain is and the back your neck near your skull at the same time!. This eventually helps with my migraines!. Also, it might help if you go out somewhere!.!.!.sometimes if I lay around with the migraine too much then it will just get worse, and going to classes sometimes helps!. Try to stay away from harsh ligths such as tv, computers, etc!.!.!.
If you see your doctor they may be able to give you a medication that helps with the migraines, but probably only if they are frequent!.

Good luck with the headache!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

So is this a migraine or not!? It makes a difference!. If you've been diagnosed with migraines and you recognise this as one, dehydration from 5 days of vomiting could very likely be prolonging the attack!.
If you have not been diagnosed with migraine you need to see a doctor!. Five days is too long to have a severe headache with no underlying cause!. Something is causing it and you need to know what that is before you know how to treat it!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Place a cloth dipped in cold water on your forehead and lie down in a dark, cool and quiet room!. Take a Paracetamol or something and go off to sleep!. When you wake up, your headache usually disappears!. Keep a record of what you eat and see if there is something that triggers off your headaches!. Avoid that item!. For some people, it is chocolate, for some it is smoking, bright lights etc!. As an alternative, if you aren't able to lie down, apply some Vicks, Tiger Balm or Axe Oil on your forehead!. It helps the pain fade away!. Your health is really important!. If you feel headachy, tell people not to disturb you and say you need rest!. See the doctor if they get worse of if you start throwing up or something!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Are you dehydrated, or have you been drinking enough water!? I suggest you lay down, make it dark and cold in your room, get some comfy covers, take some Aleve, and get a cold rag for your head!. Close you eyes and imagine your headache as a big, red, circle!. Then relax your mind and imagine that you are taking a large white circle and slowly moving it over the big red circle, and as you completely cover the red circle, with the white circle (in your head, of course) you should feel yourself calming down!. Some other things you can do, are drink plenty of water, make sure you have eaten some protein, burn a lavender candle, put a warm rag over your eyes, play some soft, low music, and take a warm bath!. If you can get to sleep, that would help too!. Take some Benedryl or something so you'll fall asleep!. I hope you get some relief soon! Oh, and get off the computer! Looking at the screen is not helping!Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can try some stronger over-the-counter tablets, something with acetominophen and codeine will work better than the acet!. alone!. But codeine can make you sleepy, so better to take a small dose, or take it at night!. If you are feeling sick with it, try an anti-nausea pill too - there is a good homeopathic one called nux vomica which really works!. If neither of these are strong enough, go to the dr and get a prescription for stronger painkillers!. Also try to relax, do some relaxation excercises (a good one is to lie flat on your back, arms by your sides, and imagine a thick warm liquid moving slowly up from your toes all the way up you body)!. Hope that helps :o)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go to the ER they will give you meds and you will be able to sleep it off!. Next go to a family doc and ask for imitrex!. I get migrains all the time this is what I have to do!. The imitrex stops the migraine before it gets too bad!. But if I dont' take it in time I always end up in the ER!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
