                          Tips to relieve headache

    When we least expect it, a migraine or headache emerges to bother us. Luckily, there are ways to stop this pain before it gets worse. Here are some simple tips.

     

     

     

    Drink water

    If our body becomes dehydrated, this can cause a headache. In summer, but really throughout the year, always keep a bottle of water nearby. And if you exercise a lot, consume an isotonic drink to replace the mineral salts that you have sweated out.

    The benefits of Himalayan salt

    Admittedly, its taste is not very pleasant, but if your headache is caused by a lack of mineral salts, this particular type of salt mixed with water is an effective remedy.

    Darkness and silence

    If you have a headache, lie down in a room with no light and no noise, and breathe deeply. Stay there for 15 minutes and you will notice an improvement.

      • Massage the sore area

        If you massage the area where the tension is located, you will often feel some relief. The massage should be gentle and can be smoothened with a few drops of massage oil.

    Paracetamol or ibuprofen

    The quick and easy alternative is to take medication. We have to add that it is generally not recommended to take paracetamol or ibuprofen for a long time without the guidance of a doctor. Also, be sure to read about the differences between paracetamol and ibuprofen.

    Avoid sitting it out

    If you have a headache, don’t wait it out. Whichever method you choose, you should apply it right away as it is quite rare for headaches to go away on their own.

                   Coffee against migraine

      You may find this strange, since caffeine tends to cause dehydration, but coffee can help against a headache. If you take coffee when you first have symptoms, it can relieve the pain. The drink acts as a vasoconstrictor (narrowing the blood vessels) and stimulates the absorption of pain relievers. You shouldn’t drink too much of it, though.

       

      • Slide 9 of 18: It seems so obvious, but many people forget! The sun causes headaches, especially if you are exposed to it for a long time. In order to avoid the discomfort, you simply have to wear sunglasses. A cap or a hat are also helpful, as well as a parasol. Photo: Dan Gold / Unsplash

      • Slide 10 of 18: Although the effect is not dramatic, taking magnesium may help to diminish a headache. In some cases, the doctor may even recommend supplements of magnesium. Otherwise, you can reach for dried fruits, especially almonds, because they contain a large amount of magnesium. Photo: Sajaya / Unsplash

    Slide 12 of 18: Stress is one of the biggest causes of migraines. The solution is to relax, disconnect from all social media, and avoid tension.Slide 14 of 18: Mint is another scent that helps reduce headache, especially if it comes from neck strain. You can rub the mint on your forehead or temples, as the cool scent works as a calming agent.

                                     Rosemary oil

    If the headache causes you to have insomnia, rosemary is highly recommended. Massage a few drops of essential oil behind the ears on the base of the skull, and you’ll see that the effect is almost immediate.

                                 Lavender scent

    Steam baths and inhaling lavender for 15 seconds help reduce the headache. The scent of lavender is highly recommended in times of stress.

                             The freshness of mint

    Mint is another scent that helps reduce headache, especially if it comes from neck strain. You can rub the mint on your forehead or temples, as the cool scent works as a calming agent.

                             Walk at a good pace

    Walking at a steady pace every day is beneficial in a lot of ways. One of them is that it helps reduce headaches, because walking facilitates the flow of blood and oxygen to the brain.

                                              Relax!

    Stress is one of the biggest causes of migraines. The solution is to relax, disconnect from all social media, and avoid tension.

                                        Cold shower

    Not everyone can stand cold showers, but if you can, this is an effective remedy against a headache. Really, try it!

                 Apply pressure on four points of the head

    Press punctually on the temples, nose, base of the skull and between the eyebrows. Do this for 10 seconds on each spot to reduce the headache.
