Turn off the lights, get everything as quiet as possible. Take some motrin, and drink a glass of water.
Get some sleep if possible.

Or, if prone to sinus issues, a spray decongestant (yes, teh eeeevil addictive kind) works almost instantly for me.

Headaches for me tend to be stress related, or sinus.

Avoid any news about Obama. :cool: Prevention is the best defense.

Dim lights, away from the computer, advil and something hot to drink. (I don't know why coffee or tea makes me feel better... unless I am a caffine junkie)

If you are a caffiene addict, try drinking iced black coffee.

It will hit you much much faster!;)

Goody's headache powders. Works for Richard Petty.

I've heard headache powders mixed with your favorite flavor of Coke (or other soft drink) works very quickly.

Dim Lights, Thick Smoke and Loud Loud Music...

Oh wait, that's an old C&W song.


Never mind.

Learned that one from the New Riders of the Purple Sage back in 1972.

I do likes me some Willie Nelson music from time to time though.

Hot bath,candles,dim the lights,soft music and lie back and close your eyes and breathe deeply and exhale. During stressful time our breathing often gets shallow. Focus on your breathing as you relax and let Calgon take you away.

That sounds so appealing right now!

You can massage the muscle groups at the base of your skull, you can do this by lacing your fingers behind your head and rub either side of the spot where the skull meets the spinal column. Its a quick fix until the pain relievers kick in.

Was it something about yesterday? I also had a killer of a headache. Almost in the migraine capacity and I rarely have anything like that. It was terrible. I finally got rid of it about 9 pm. :neutral:

I have been told to take the max number of Tylenol and Ibuprofen and chase with some caffeine, either a soda or in my case coffee. It works, but sucks until it takes effect.

Vegas Bomber: Crown, peach schnapps, and red bull. Repeat dosage until the headache disappears.
