What can you do for severe headache?

Question

when you are allergic to every pain pill in the universe...are there any herbal painmeds out there?

Answer 1

This is gonna sound weird, but if you put a close pin or just pinch the skin between your thumb and first finger, you should get headache relief.

Answer 2

I used to have tension vascular headaches, with symptoms very similiar to migraines, and they caused me to miss at least a day of work a month or more. I read about Feverfew, an herb, which is supposed to work on vascular headaches and started taking it
(I take 2 380 mg caps/day). I have not had a vascular headache since, at least 10 years. I still have mild headaches and neck muscle aches, but not the severe kind. You have to take it for a month or two before you get the full effect, but it works.
There are several herbs that that have a calming effect, assuming your headaches are basically as a result of muscular tension: valerian root, kava kava, and other combinations. Go to a health food store & check out what is there. I order Feverfew from Puritan's Pride catalog and Kava Kava from Total Health Discount Vitamins. You can go on line and check out the products from a lot of companies, or go to a health food or vitamin store and get advice from the folks there.
Have you checked out chiropracters, massage or bio feedback? Those help a lot.
Good luck

You need to go to a doctor.
You can go to church and ask for prayer I know this will help.
When I was a child I had bad Migrain headaches and I had prayer for them now I don't have migrain headaches any more.
I am 45 now ever so often I have a headache but nothing remotely even close to what I use to.
When I have headache now it is very minor.
I really wish I knew some home remady, but a lass I don't try clod compresses are warm they both will help some.
I am truly sorry that I could not be of more help

Light a lavender scented candle, lie down in a dark room, put on some really relaxing music--play it on a very low volume, gently and softly rub your ears and ear lobes.

I use Peppermint Tea or you can go to the health food store and get Black Willow Bark and take that in a tea or they might have it in capsules. Good Luck.

Answer 7

This will sound wierd but have someone put their hands on the sides of your head (they should be facing you, with thier hands upright) and press hard on your temples with thier palms. Or you can try holding an ice cube in your hand, it makes you forget. I heard sex works too. (that was actually on the news!)

**sorry I changed my answer on you, but i forgot how it worked, so use this answer.
