Any advice would be nice on more serious note... if you dont mind taking some herbal stuff and you have a korean or a chinese friend. Ask them to take to an asian doctor that specializes in the Eastern medicine.. they might have a natural solution for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan T. Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Recline your head back slightly, resting it on something. Place a warmed towel across your forehead and close your eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickalino Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Recline your head back slightly, resting it on something. Place a warmed towel across your forehead and close your eyes. Should be a cold towel. Cold is needed for pain or inflammation. Here's a few others, that work for migraines, so it should work for a simple headache. * Turn off all the lights in the room. Light a candle. Stare at the candle and concentrate on the movement of the flames. * Take one thumb, and press down into the space between your other thumb and your index fingers. Press down until it hurts. Now, this isn't some silly joke about creating pain in one area of your body, so you mentally forget the other pain. It actually works much of the time. * Similar to what Dan said, but lay on a bed horizontally, so that your neck is line with the edge of your bed, and your head extends beyond the bed. Then let your head decline off the side of the bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 If it's not medically induced,, meaning it's not due to something actually wrong with you... Here's a nice method to relieve a tension headache. You need about five or six minutes and some quiet. Close your eyes. Uncross your arms and legs, just sit quietly. Make a mental picture about a foot from your face. What color is the headache? What shape is it? If it could hold water, how much water can it hold? Once you've got your image, STARE at it in your mind's eye a foot from your face, Concentrate on it. Eventually you will lose concentration on it and the image will fade. And your headache should be gone. If you're laying down, try this Imagine your body is made of clear plastic. It's filled up with an orange liquid. There are pinprick holes in your fingertips. Concentrate on the liquid as it streams slowly from the tiny holes on your fingertips. Keep your mind on that liquid flowing through your fingertips. When you're empty, your headache should be gone. Last one. Seeing through your eyes is easy, It's natural, your consciousness and awareness automatically center from your eyes. Change the center. Try and put all of your awareness in your left big toe. Concentrate so much onj your left big toe that it is all there is. Once you've done that, move your awareness up your foot. Slowly. Keep moving it slowly up your leg, around your ankle, become aware of every hair on your leg, every crease of skin. (without touching it of course, your hands should just stay at your sides) Soon enough your headache will be gone. These are simple methods of transference. You have a headache, so that is what you're concentrating on. Change what you're concentrating on, and it will alleviate the pain. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMS Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 They have a certain type of headache called a cluster headache where bad headaches, ( eye watering ones ) occur in series for a time, then go away.. then come back... The cure for these types of headaches is to breath pure 100% oxygen. CNN published this cure from a medical research institute late last year, but it's been a known remedy for some time. I have a family member who keeps a oxygen tank at home just for these occassions. She swears by this cure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMS Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 I tried drinking half a gallon of water over half an hour ago but that just made me piss a lot. I've gotten dehydration headaches before. I got food poisoning and had sweats and diarea..... Then I got these wicked headaches. When I went to the doctory he told me to shake my head and to see if that hurt.... It did. That's how he diagnosed dehydration headaches... different from cluster headaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Boil a pot of water with either eucalyptus, sweat marjoram, peppermint or geranium. Geranium being the best (and it's an aphrodisiac). I swear by holistic medicines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Jeez all of the things you guys mention are out there...especially bang. I'll try them though because I'm soo gulible and desperate It's not "out there" It's simple transference. It just transfers your concentration away from the headache. If it's a simple stress induced tension headache, the techniques will relax the muscles causing the pain. Masturbation or sex is the same principle. You stop concentrating on your headache and you concentrate on something else. Try the first one. Make a mental picture, It only takes a few minutes, and it works. (Unless it's caused by lack of sleep or something medical) ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problems occure however if the headache's personality is stronger than your own and it convinces you to conform to it's agenda rather than visa versa... I think Oxygen is a more modest solution, which wouldn't involved potential DEA charges. and their are studies which document it's "dramatic relief" for headache suffers. A cluster headache is one of the most painful types of headache. A striking feature of cluster headache is that the attacks occur in cyclical patterns, or clusters — which gives the condition its name <LI class=doublespace _extended="true">Oxygen. Briefly inhaling 100 percent oxygen through a mask at a rate of 7 to 10 liters a minute provides dramatic relief for most who use it. The effects of this safe, inexpensive procedure can be felt within 15 minutes. The major drawback of oxygen is the need to carry an oxygen cylinder and regulator with you, which can make the treatment inconvenient and inaccessible at times. Small, portable units are available, but some people still find them impractical. Sometimes, oxygen may only delay rather than stop the attack, and pain may return. http://www.cnn.com/HEALTH/library/cluster-headache/DS00487.html http://www.clusterheadaches.com/about.html#Oxygen The inhalation of 100 percent oxygen, via a tight-fitting mask at a flow rate of 8 to 10 liters/min for 10 to 15 minutes is dramatically effective for about 80 percent of those patients for whom this approach is feasible; oxygen is particularly effective for nocturnal attacks. This mode of therapy, although recommended by Horton (1952) over 35 years ago, has only recently been substantiated by controlled trials (Kudrow, 1981; Fogan, 1985). Oxygen inhalations may be repeated up to five times per day. Sakai and Meyer (1979) have shown that marked cerebral vasoconstriction results from the administration of 100 percent oxygen during cluster headache attacks. Whether this effect is direct or is mediated centrally has not been studied. Oxygen also stimulates the synthesis of serotonin in the central nervous system (CNS) (Costa and Meek, 1974).

I'm not into pills but I've got this killer headache, the one where your eyes hurt and its hard to read. Any advice would be nice asprin contains two natural things, caffeine and acetylsalicylic acid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMS Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 acetylsalicylic acid. Willow Bark..... I don't think caffiene is natural in asprin... Bayer and other pure asprins don't have caffiene in them. But many do add it because caffiene withdrawl is leading cause for some types of headaches. Yep, a third type of headache..... is the cafeine Headache. Folks who drink a lot of cafeine can get withdrawl effects which manifest as headaches when they don't get that coffee or don't get that vat of diet coke during the day. Consuming Caffiene in any form helps them too. The three types of headaches we've discussed are.. Dehydration - drink water. Cluster - Oxygen. Caffiene - eat caffiene... many asprins and I think tylonol add it to their drug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
