She needs to make herself throw up anything in her stomach and then drink some water and some regular coffee or tea with caffeine, eat some crackers or a slice of bread, and then go to sleep. If she would take 3 ibuprofen that would be very helpful too.

If she is having a migraine that she can not kick, she should see her doctor. He can prescribe her something that would be more effective than Tylenol. If she is on diet pills, then she needs to stop taking them. High blood pressure causes bad headaches. Also, when you are extremely dehydrated you can have severe headaches and drinking lots of water will help. She could be having panic attacks that are causing her chest to hurt and a headache. She could be depriving her body of nutrients by improper dieting that can be doing this. As you can see, there are so many things that could be the cause including those not listed. Going to the doctor could be the best if her pain persists.

From a girl who knows, the first three things to try - 1. Caffeine - cup of coffee or a soda with caffeine. 2. Take your hair down, if its pulled off your face in a clip or something. 3. Lie down - sometimes its a muscle ache in your neck and it causes muscles to tense on your scalp - if you relax the neck and head muscles, it can relieve the pain.
The best thing that works for me (other than the top three) are chiropractic adjustments. Whenever I get a migraine I see my chiropractor and its completely gone within 5 minutes of the adjustment. Its amazing. Other possibilities: she could have a sinus or chest infection like brochitis. Maybe asthma (chest pain) and allergies (headache). Maybe a bad reaction to some diet medications she is taking. Or maybe just stress. Try to get her to see her doctor about it. Could be just stress, could be more.

Headache is a pain in the head, scalp or neck.
Headaches can be caused by minor problems
like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more serious reasons
like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can
have harmful side effects, so it is better to
modify your lifestyle. More information available at

She needs a good massage all over. However, she needs to go to the doctor to rule out anything medically wrong. Please do not ignore these symptoms....her life depends on it!!
