Hello,
To stop a headache immediately at home, try these quick and effective remedies based on the type of headache you’re experiencing—whether it’s due to tension, stress, dehydration, or sinus issues.
Drink Water:
Dehydration is a common cause. Drink a full glass of water and sip more throughout the day.
Cold or Warm Compress:
Use a cold pack on your forehead if it’s a migraine.
Use a warm compress on the neck or back of the head for tension headaches.
Ginger Tea:
Ginger has natural anti-inflammatory properties. Boil fresh ginger in water and sip slowly.
Massage and Rest:
Gently massage your temples, forehead, and neck. Lie down in a dark, quiet room and rest.
Inhale Steam (for sinus-related headaches):
Add a few drops of eucalyptus oil or ajwain to hot water and inhale the steam.
Avoid Screen Time:
Take a break from mobile/laptop screens if that’s triggering the pain.
Over-the-counter pain relievers like paracetamol or ibuprofen can help, but use only under guidance.
If your headaches are frequent and severe or cause vision changes, vomiting, or dizziness, consult a neurologist. HexaHealth can help you book a specialist and provide end-to-end support.
Wishing you quick relief and clear-headed comfort!
