Causes and Treatments of Stress Headaches

Article by Steinharter Bierly

Stress headaches are incredibly common, especially in our stressed out culture and while the easiest fix is to pop an aspirin or another over the counter medication for a quick solution but the better plan is to find a long term and permanent solution to keep the headaches at bay. If you only suffer from headaches once in a while, that isn’t a big deal but if they happen a lot, you should try to figure out the underlying cause of them. If your headaches are really severe, you should visit your doctor but you might also find some relief from the following remedies.

You can ease your stress headache with an ice pack. It’s possible to make a quick ice pack using a bag of ice or bag of frozen veggies and wrapping a towel around it. Lie back in a comfortable spot and try to relax while using the ice pack on your forehead, the top of your head and the back of your neck (move it every few minutes from one location to the other). Let it sit the longest where you feel the most pain. Ice acts as an anti-inflammatory which helps lower the amount of pain you are feeling. This won’t address the cause of your tension headaches, but it can be quick way to get relief.

Sinus Headache Symptoms

Article by Ron King

Most of the common sinus headache symptoms will be evident long before the actual headache has become painful. Sinus headaches occur when pressure builds up within the sinus canals, which run between your ears, nose and throat. Sinus symptoms generally begin with a stuffy nose, which can progress into more serious congestion in the upper nasal cavities.

The majority of sinus headache sufferers will also have postnasal drip. Which is a symptom that is as unpleasant as it sounds – the blocked sinuses will release that build up of mucus; which then runs down the back of the throat. Untreated, in time, these symptoms will often lead to that excruciating and throbbing pain, known as a sinus headache.

Question by clarinet123: How do you know when it’s the end of your tension headache?
For those of you who get tension headaches, can you please help! I can’t take this anymore! The headache isnt painful, and I’m very thankful for it but it is uncomfortable after a while! I’m not talking about normal headaches, I’m talking about a TENSION headache! Where everything in your head feels tight (it’s kind of hard to explain) but anyways, How do I know when it’s almost the end? I’ve had it for almost a week and a half and I’m just ready for it to be over! Also, if anyone knows any helpful relief tips please help! I’m 17 years old and just graduated from high school, I don’t want to be celebrating like this! Thanks in advance!

Also, I can’t afford to go to the doctor so if it doesnt need to be checked by the doctor then I want to keep it that way! But if you all think a trip to the doctor is needed then I’ll go but I’m sure it’s a tension headache! I awaken with it, my head feels tight, it kind of feels better in the shower, and it’s at it’s worse when I’m thinking about it! But it is kind of hard not to think about it!

Article by Vivian Wright

Headaches are comprised of two major categories, primary and secondary. Headaches belonging to the primary group are not caused by underlying medical conditions while secondary headaches are the result of a medical condition such as trauma, infection or possibly even a brain tumor. Most headaches belong in the primary category.

The primary category headaches include migraine headaches and tension headaches. These two headache types are the most common of all headaches with tension-type headaches being the most common. Tension headaches constitute about 75% of all headaches while migraine headaches affect as many as 30 or 40 million Americans, or approximately 10% or more of the American population.

Acne is an unpleasant condition that affects the majority of people in the world at some time or other in their lives (usually during their teenage years). It is caused by overactive sebaceous glands producing too much sebum (skin oils).Do you suffer from GERD or acid and reflux disease? A good healthy diet for GERD can often cure GERD rather than just suppressing it with medication. Doctors often prescribe medication to prevent the effects of acid and reflux or GERD but the fact is that this medication really doesn’t do anything to cure these problems.

acid and reflux or gastric reflux disease is damage to the esophagus caused by stomach acid moving upward into the esophagus. The most typical symptom is heartburn.

If you are forced to deal with lots of stress–and lots of people are–headaches might be a problem that you are forced to deal with. Most people have to deal with headaches every so often but for some people they can be debilitating and chronic. While you need to get help from your doctor if you have headaches frequently or severely, home remedies like the ones we’ll be talking about here could also help you.

A quick and easy way to ease a stress headache is to use an ice pack. A good simple ice pack is a towel wrapped around a bag filled with ice or even around a bag of frozen veggies. Lie down and try to relax while putting the ice pack on your forehead and moving it every few minutes to the top of your head and your forehead. If one spot hurts more than another, make sure it gets extra time with the ice pack. Ice has the effect of numbing pain, and it can reduce the inflammation that’s causing the headache. While this won’t cure the cause of your tension headaches it can offer some quick and temporary relief.
