Cause
This is often the result of a disturbance in some other part of the body, such as digestive disorders in the stomach, liver or bowel; problems in the abdominal area; menstrual irregularities, impingements in the cervical; concussion, eye strain, nervous excitement, fatigue, etc. The headache is a mechanism which signals some serious problem elsewhere. The common headache is due to faulty elimination, and the waste matter causes problems until the toxic wastes reach the stomach nerves and affects them. Sometimes headaches are caused from panic, fear, or worrying about the unknown. Headaches of this type are the hardest to relieve, generally requiring something strong like a heavy nervine tea with lobelia in it to diminish the nervous excitement. A nerve tea such as valerian or skullcap with a few drops of tincture of lobelia to a cup will give relief.
Food allergies are another very common cause of headache. The worst culprit is sugar; I have experienced sugar headaches, which are sort of a withdrawal; you eat the sugar, and then as the body is trying to eliminate the toxic substance, your head pounds. Cheese commonly causes headaches, probably the worst of the dairy products for this, although allergies to any of them may cause the pain. Meats and eggs are also common allergens.
Herbal Aids
1.General Instructions: Improve elimination with the Lower Bowel Formula #1 (use the cathartics and enemas only in case of emergency). If the problem is in the stomach area, use any of the following stomach herbs: angelica, balmony, black alder, elecampane, gentian root, raspberry leaves, rhubarb, strawberry leaves, wild cherry, wormwood. Use ginger for a menstrual problem. To relieve the local headache pain, two or three drops of tincture of lobelia in a little water three times a day or up to every hour if required will often give temporary relief. If the contents of the stomach causes the problem, empty that area with an emetic. Where the nerves are raw, the following herbs are excellent: catnip, peppermint (hot), rosemary herb, skullcap, spearmint, wood betony, and since plenty of rest is needed, any of the foregoing herbs along with hops tea is very soothing and will produce sleep.
Testimonials
1.Cayenne Ointment: (Red Sun Balm) My husband gets severe migraines occasionally, presumably because he does high-stress academic work. These headaches can keep him sitting up all night because they hurt too much for him to lie down. Once when he was suffering from one of these I thoroughly rubbed his back with Professor Cayenne's Ointment, rubbing out the tense places as much as I could. Soon he was asleep and slept all night.
2.Kelp: A man reported to Dr. Powell with much indigestion with bilious turns. Almost every morning for some months he had risen from bed in the morning with a sick headache. For a time he had taken purgatives, salts and aspirins, which, although giving relief, failed to heal the man; indeed, these things had made him worse. The doctor asked the man to fast and then put him on a cleansing diet. He got somewhat better, though not completely. Eventually he began to take Kelp and cell salts at every meal, and after some weeks his troubles left him. In this case, the doctor noted, Kelp not only acted on the liver, but also on the toxic colon, the gall bladder, kidneys, and meninges. The latter are usually involved when the headaches are severe.

My daughter used to get terrible migraines that would last 2-3 days and they would come 2-3 times a week. We tried going to the doctor and getting different medications. Nothing helped as much as the change in her routine. She went from public school to home schooling when her headaches went to about 2 times a month at the same time. It was apparently stress that was causing her headaches.
However, there are other things that could cause headaches. If you know it is not from stress, then I think it would be a good idea to go to a doctor to rule out any tumor and/or to a chiropractor that could correct a problem that he might be able to correct.

There are great answers here. A daily headache is something to get checked out. There are SO many possibilities here: cavities, stress, eyestrain, neck & shoulder tightness, neck problems, blood pressure variations, allergies, sinus trouble.....Try keeping a log or diary. Write down all that you eat & drink, when do these headaches start. Soon you may see a relationship. Are there ANY other symptoms at all? Is there a stressful situation at school or home? It's quite rare for one to have a really serious problem like tumor or something. Are you sleeping well at night & how is your schedule? Do you exercise, are u overweight or constantly dieting. All of these should be considered. Here's an educational site to help you.

about a year ago i was getting headaches everyday all day long and then they would expand into eye poping brain pounding skukll numbing migraines where i would want to hit my head against a wall untill they went away. well i went to see my doctor and was asked a couple of other questions about my menstral cycle and such and was sent to another doctor who specializes in PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrom) since this doctor has helped me with some of those symptoms the frequesncy of my headaches has gone down she has also helped with the migraines with imitrex. I suggest talking to your doctor and try to work it all out from there they can tell you if a chiropractor will help or if you need something else. you can always get a second opinion.

Actually this sounds like symptoms from eating or drinking things with artificial sugar in it such as Nutrasweet, etc. There are lots of people who cannot tolerate the chemical and bad bad headaches along with neck pain and pain in or around/behind the eyes. Try drinking lots of fluids for a few days, without the chemicals in it (all diet food and drink has this garbage in it) then when your body is flushed out eat or drink regular stuff. No artificial sugars. See if your pains go away.

I get the wicked neck pains too. Way less now since I met an amazing woman who took that neck pain away and showed me alittle how to do massage to my own neck.
I would say reduce stress, get massages, acupuncture, large cups of coffee, enough sleep, lots of water and good food.
See what helps, do more of that.

with this medical dictionary, I'll diagnose you, here's some questions, e-mail me your answers, then I'll e-mail you with more questions until you've answered them all
1. do you have a fever?
yes: is the pain severe? no: have you injured your head?
e-mail me your answers and I'll continue the questions. I'd type them all here but it'd be confusing because of the answer format. I won't be sure until you answer all the questions, but considering your description, it looks like you may have high blood pressure, I'm NOT confirming this, just send me your answers, when you've answered them all, I'll know.
