How do I get rid of this headache?

Question

The only type of pain reliever I can take is tylenol (due to the Rx's I am on). I have already taken tylenol, drank caffiene, stretched, I tried to lay down but that makes it worse. Any ideas of what I can try that is not medicine?

I have also drank a lot of water to make sure it isn't from dehydration.

Answer 1

Try some ice packs on your head - it will feel alot better. Also they sell in the health food store a aromatherapy thing called "migrastick" its a small bottle with a rollerball of peppermint, lavender and other essential oils, your roll it on your temples and across your forehead and it will take alot of the edge off the headache. I dont like to take medications and have had a history of severe headaches in the past. The ice and migrastick has helped me incredibly.

Answer 2

Amputation.

Try accupressure. Pinch the fleshy area on your hand between your thumb and index finger. Usually there is a sore spot that helps release tension headaches.

Have you gotten any fresh air?

Go in a quiet room and cover your eyes with a damp cloth. Make sure it is really dark in there. Try to just sleep, if you can't, just relax as much as you can.
