I prefer to have a diarrhea than a headache. At least you can still think clearly on what to do when you have diarrhea. When you have a headache, you can’t think and all your activities are stopped on its track.
The fastest way to get rid of headache is to take medicine, but you are worried that medicine has some side effects. Most headache cure I know usually put some weight on your liver and therefore too much taking it could potentially cause some damage to the liver.
So is there any other way to get rid of headache without medicine? Assuming this is just a common headache and not something else then there are these method that I employ:
Burb… This might be strange as what it has to do with headache, but I find it quite helpful.
Make the room dark, the light usually annoy me when I have headache so staying in a dark room should give some relieve.
Keep yourself warm. Don’t go outside as the cold air could make worsen your headache. I usually use two jackets an also ointment in the stomach, neck and the back to keep myself warm.
Rehydrate yourself. Usually if I drink a lot of water whenever I get a headache it makes it go away quicker. Drink hot water, not cold or cool water.
Keep your stomach filled. You need to have energy to fight the headache and in order to have energy you need to eat. I know its hard to eat something when you have headache, but you need to try it or it won’t get better.
Stay clear from noises. I find that hearing noises or even music irritate my headache even more. So go to a dark, no noise room to rest.
Pulling your hair. Another weird advice from me, but this also work to give some relieve to the headache.
I always like the feeling when you get rid of the headache, it feels like the world is beautiful again. Anyway, all those tips can give some relieve to common headache but if its not cured after 24-36 hours then you should see a doctor as it might be not just a common headache.
