I can't use any medicine, don't have any anyway, but besides that and the pressure point between your index finger and thumb I don't know how to get rid of this headache. Please help it's killing me.

Paracetemol.. but continued use will actually cause a headache. Then there is pushing your forehead just between your eyebrows really hard to relieve pressure of your sinuses which is a short term relief if the headache is caused by sinus problems. Then there is sleeping, avoiding bright light. There is no cure for a headache as such. If medicines arn't working then stop taking them, they end up being the course. Or have someone stamp on your foot so hard that your head doesn't hurt anymore. hehe

Okie Dokie... here's what I do. I take 2 Aleve... make sure you don't take more than 3 in 24 hours though... they are an anti-inflammatory (along with Advi)... take those and lay down with the side that your headache is on pressed into the pillow. This really helps me. If it happens to be a sinus headache, take Excedrin and regular Sudafed, not PE... you'll have to get the Sudafed behind the pharmacy counter. That REALLY helps with a sinus headache. Hope you feel better soon, I know how you feel!

Place a hot or cold compress on the back of your neck and/or forehead. Sometimes caffeine can help as well. Try to get in a dark and quiet place while the kids are napping =) I suffered from migraines my entire life and nothing worked. Then about 2 months after I started taking this product my headaches are long gone! Check it out - vemmaking.com

Get a cold can of pop or go put a can of pop in the freezer for 20-30 minutes (don't forget about it or you could have a big mess!) and then hold it to your forehead till it's too cold or your head starts to feel better. I use this a lot because I don't like to take pills if I can absolutely help it.

Get you some lotion & give your neck & shoulders a good massage. It could be that you have a tension headache. Loosen those muscles and it may ease your pain. I've suffered with tension & migraines all of my life, so I empathize with you. You may even get your kids to help rub your neck & shoulders. I have a 5 year old and she massages me. We take turns massaging each other. Good luck. 2D

sleep, use earplugs to seal out all other sound, and put something over your eyes, to get rid of any light
