10 Tips for Getting Rid of Headaches Quickly
June 7, 2023
When you have headache pain, it can throw your whole day off. The aching and throbbing may simply be a minor annoyance or it can stop you from following through with your normal routine. Whether you get mild or severe headaches, and whether they happen on occasion or relatively often, knowing how to ease your symptoms can help you feel better and get on with your life.
If you have a headache that is severe, comes on suddenly and is accompanied by dizziness, confusion, trouble speaking or other neurological symptoms, get emergency medical treatment right away because it may be a sign of a stroke. If you have pain or other symptoms following a blow to the head, also seek medical care so you can be checked for a head injury or concussion.
