How to get rid of a headache that won't go away?

Question

for 2 days i have been having bad headaches. like ones that make my eyeballs hurt. and sometimes make my ears plugged up. i had it really bad last night and when i woke up i felt totally different like really happy and not stressed out, but now it is coming back. medicine does not work on it i have tried different kinds. does anyone know any other tricks to get rid of the headache? i will make a appointment with my doctor but i don't have health insurance and i can't afford to co payment until i get paid in 3 days. until then, any tips or ideas? oh yeah and i usually don't ever get headaches so i am not used to them.

Answer 1

Ever had trouble with your sinuses?  Hurting behind your eyes, and pressure in your ears sounds like sinus problems to me.  A sinus infection can make you feel that way.  I've had them before, and I didn't feel sick really........not like a cold with watery eyes, or stuffy nose, or runny nose..........nothing that made me think of sinus problems.  I could breathe fine, but all the same, it was sinus.  You might try a sinus headache medicine, or a decongestant might do the trick.

Answer 2

it sounds like you may have a sinus infection, and they are not fun. if you do get a chance to go to the doctor, a z-pack really helps. ask your doctor about them. just try to rest, deep breaths through your nose and out your mouth help you relax. if it doesnt go away after proper medicine and some doctor treatment, it could be swelling on your brain..that is prbly not the case but just something to look into as well. good luck & i hope you feel better.

I swear.Headaches will drive you insane. I get them all the time.I found this stuff at cvs called migraine relief.Its made from the herb feverfew.It works almost instantly.It's only about three bucks. Other things you can do are lie in a dark room, don't wear a pontytail, and drink hot tea. It seems to help.
