HEALTH COMPETITION - TOPIC : HEADACHES

in #health6 years ago (edited)

So I decided to take part in the health competition hosted by @tatjanastan here on this awesome platform, please note that the length of my post (not too long) and the use of just one photo are both requirements for the competition.

Headache refers to any simple, complicated, acute form of pain felt anywhere in the region of the head or neck. There are many forms, types or manifestation of headache, but one of most common presentation is migraine. Frequently experienced headaches can have very destabilizing and discomforting effect.

There is also an increased risk of depression in those with severe aches in the head region. While the main cause of headache may be stress, other diseased conditions usually manifest through headache. Paracetamol or panadol is usually prescribed as first choice treatment, however note that the use of Non Steroidal Anti inflammatory Drugs like aspirins, dichlophenac, etc are not advised for ulcer patients as they increase the hydrochloric acid content of the stomach.

Most times, patients having headaches may be advised to take a rest, headaches may be experienced on different part of the headache, ranging from frontal to lateral, apart from the aboved named causes of headache, headaches could arise from head injuries or hits maybe in an accident. If headache persits, patients are advised to see a doctor to ascertain the exact cause(s).

However, regular exercises, healthy habits like watching movies and sitting out with friends. is of the essence too.

They say that putting a banana peel on your forehead when you have a doosy of a headache will take it away. As dumb as it sounds, I tried it, and IT DOES NOTHING, BUT MAKE MY FOREHEAD STICKY...LOL. Thanks my fellow Sugar Mama for the info

Headaches are the worst things

I have heard pressing some accupressure point on your hands can relieve headaches.Its bettter than taking medicines.

Very terrible dr.

Headaches and toothaches are very troublesome one . Usauly headaches causes due to various reasons, if so many reasons are there but the depression is main reason. Heredity too the one of the main reason for causes of migraine. Thanks for the good post!

It is one of most encountered symptoms in clinical practice. sometimes the causes are apparent, sometimes not. Most of the cases simple paracetamol is enough but we shouldn't take it lightly always. It might be manifestation on some serious underlying conditions.

I think rinsing ur head with cold water also gives some relief

True, thank you for this input
