Try Excedrin….either tension headache, migraine, or whatever else they have…..it definitely works…..take it from someone who has chronic headaches!

Take Excedrin Migraine. You are getting pre menstrual migraines. They are AMAZING!! I deal with the same thing every month. I know when I’m about to start because I get the GRAND MAL HEADACHE of the century!! Good luck! Email me and let me know if it works!!

Headaches can be caused by minor problems
like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more serious reasons
like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can
have harmful side effects, so it is better to
modify your lifestyle. More information available at

There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis,
Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine.
Acupuncture is the best treatment. I can treat it with naturopathy & YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Acupressure for acute H/A works nicely. Search a painful point behind your thumb nail(any) three to 10 mm away. Press that point couragiously or ask others to do it; it will pain for a moment but H/A WILL DISAPPEAR WITHIN A FEW SECONDS!
You try one herbal remedy IF H/A IS CHRONIC - two drops of drumstick leaves’ juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it isvery strong.

I have a friend who takes Excedrin for Migraines before her cycle and continues until it is over. That’s the only way she gets through them without suffering.
