I took Tylenol, and that normally helps but my head hurts soo bad. The pain is basically on basically my entire head, not just one or two places like usual. I really don't want to lay down or go to sleep yet so do you have any other suggestions? Thanks.

Lol...to that first answer...that would be a negative. I'm waiting for a phone call and I don't want to risk missing it.

Tylenol, and since you said it didnt work..lay down in a dark room for a bit. I know light makes my headaches worse. Umm, cold rag on your head.. a stronger medication, take a warm bath..

I am not a medical expert, so if the headache is different from the ones you usually have, you really ought to go to a clinic - but, you could try a cold wet (wrung out) facecloth on your forehead,and accross your eyes, and a second one on the back of your neck at the same time. This might shrink the bloodvessels that are swollen and causing pressure on the nerves in your head and neck. Works for me. So does a cup of coffee, which works by expanding the bloodvessels and allowing a better blood flow. Good luck.

Try excedrine migraine. Or there is a pressure point on your hand in the skin between your thumb and index finger. Pinch it as hard as you can stand for as long as you can stand. This sounds idiotic but it DOES work. Temporary though. Maybe an hour or two. But excedrine migraine works very very well.

Do you tend to have sinus? Sometimes your nose is stopped up and you don't realize it. Put your finger against one side on your nose so it stops air flow. Try to breathe through the open side. If you can't breath then your sinus are swollen. Try the other side if that side is ok. If you are congested breath steam , drink hot tea or a hot drink, even if it is hot. If it isn't sinus you could have eye
strain, or migraine. If you aren't feeling better soon , please see
your physician.
