Title: Unlikely cure for reocurring Headaches
Post by: momoney555 on April 20, 2013, 11:28:43 am
I have noticed a lot of past posts that address cures for headaches but did not notice any that addressed the issue of reocurring headaches being caused by pressure caused by blocked sinuses.  About a year ago I began waking up with really bad headaches and aspirin did not help.  I began to fear that I might possibly have a brain tumor or it could be caused by high blood pressure because I could not come up with a reason for the reoccurring headaches. I read on the internet that clearing your sinuses with a little salted water would relieve the pressure in your head.  I tried it and my headache instantly went away.  I was shocked.  Since then I purchased a Nettipot and it works every time.

Something else that will help is drinking water. If you're dehydrated, it's hard to keep it flowing..  :D

Try some tea made with fresh ginger and honey. I drink a cup in the morning and it seems to help.

I know what you mean about the pollen..I have seriously considered wearing a surgical mask or bandana over my nose when I go outside!  :D
