I have been having a headache every night for the past week. I listen to music often, but I have always listened to music alot. I get them out of nowhere. I take excederin. Why do I keep getting headaches and how do I get rid of them?
historygrl4no1 answered Saturday August 20 2005, 10:00 am: I have heard that headaches are often caused by stress, are you under any stress? I get headaches too, and I take Tylonal. I would ask a parents first before you take that though. I also suffer from a lot of stress, so what I do is go to my room and take a nap, read, listen to music ( but at a low volume level ), oor just watch T.V. Hope this Helped.

There could be something seriously wrong with you. I take Ibprofin for headaches, and body aches and cramps. That seems to help me. I really think that you should go see your family doctor and tell him the symptoms you have been having... [ CrystalRenee06's advice column | Ask CrystalRenee06 A Question ]

You may also need to see about getting glasses or getting your prescription updated. I know when I need to get new glasses, I tend to get a lot more headaches than usual.
It may be that you've been having more tension and stress in your life than you're used to and that could be a cause. Relaxation, meditation, some deep breathing... these seem to help when I get stress headaches.
I know that sometimes when I need to eat and haven't done it in a timely fashion, I get headaches. Maybe a snack would help.
I listen to music often, as well. I don't think I get headaches from it. However, I know that when I have a headache or the beginning of one, the music tends to agitate it.
A few things that work for my headaches... I've always taken Ibuprofen for my headaches. I've read and heard that headaches are an inflammation in the brain. Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory. It can work wonders for my headaches. Sometimes, though, we'll be out of Ibu. or I just don't want to take any. (I'm not fond of taking medications if I can get around it.) A nice dark, quiet room and some good rest may help. A cool cloth on your forehead, may help. One rememdy that works for me is to take some Vaporub (you can use Vick's but discount brands work, too), put a little smear across your forehead, across the nape of your neck and behind your ears. It might sound a bit nuts, but I've gotten some monster headaches that this has taken care of.
Finally, if the headaches beging to interfere with your daily life on a regular basis, the pain becomes simply too much to bear, or the headaches are accompanied by other symptoms (eg. nausea, dizzyness, blurred vision) see your doctor immediately.
