I get a lot of headaches help?

Question

i get headaches everyday it is horriblee the doc gave me codrydramol but i dont want to be popping pills all day is there other ways to help

Answer 1

I have trouble with daily headaches and migraines.   After an MRI and different medications, I decided to ask my dentist at a checkup.   It turned out that I have TMJ and my headaches are caused by my jaw being misaligned.  It was easily fixed with a mouthpiece I wear at night.  I can wear the mouthpiece during the day if I find myself clenching my teeth together too.  Meditation and relaxation techniques also help.  Here is a link about TMJ...

Answer 2

You should ask your doctor about going on a melatonin plan.  Melatonin is just a vitamin.

ABSTRACT

Cluster headache is a stereotypic headache disorder marked by short-lasting bouts of severe unilateral head pain and associated autonomic symptoms. Almost pathognomonic of this condition are nocturnal attacks that usually occur during the first random eye movement sleep phase of the evening. Melatonin levels have been found to be decreased in cluster headache patients. A lack of melatonin secretion may predispose the cluster sufferer to nocturnal and, possibly, daytime attacks. Leone et al. demonstrated that melatonin could rapidly alleviate cluster attacks, but only in episodic cluster patients. We report two chronic cluster headache patients who had both daytime and nocturnal attacks that were alleviated with melatonin.
