Home Treatment
Most of the time headaches
get better or go away with home treatment and do not require
a visit to a doctor. Home treatment for headaches can
often help reduce the severity of pain and the length
of time the pain is present. Home treatment may also relieve
other symptoms, such as fever, nausea or vomiting, anxiety,
or muscle aches. Start home treatment as soon as you can.
Be sure to review the home treatment information for any
other symptoms you may have.
If your doctor has prescribed
a specific treatment for your headaches, begin treatment
as soon as a headache starts. Be sure to follow his or
her instructions when taking any prescription medicine
for your headache.
