We all, at one time or the other, feel headaches, which can either be slight or severe ones, and we do get drugs to relieve us of the aching effects that disturb us and hinder performance. When the blood vessels become swollen or stretched due to high cholesterol deposits or the force exerted by the blood flowing through the blood vessels in the brain, the nerve is impacted and stretched, making it send signals to the brain that something is wrong with it so that appropriate measures can be taken to prevent the condition from getting worse....CONTINUE READING
The action of the brain nerves, as explained above, and the disturbances from the blood vessels make us feel what is called a “headache,” and when this happens, we look for drugs that can relieve us of the aching sensation we feel in our brains.
However, there are some ways to treat headaches without taking drugs, which I want to briefly discuss in this article, and so I want you to carefully read through as I share them one after another.
1. According to Healthline, when you have a headache, drinking tea extracted from ground dried ginger roots is one way to relieve you of the aching effect.
This is because ginger has a high proportion of certain chemicals commonly known as antioxidants, which help to destroy the action of free radicals that can affect the blood pressure or induce the stretching or swelling of the blood vessels, which can cause aching.
As a warning, ginger should be consumed in moderate amounts, and you should consult your doctor for further advice on better and more productive ways to drink it for effective results.
2. When you sleep, the body is relieved of much work load, and the brain can release some hormones that triggers the repair and healing of the parts of the body that have been impacted by different kinds of external and internal factors which causes the nerves to send messages to the brain on the needs the take care of the affected parts.
In other words, sleeping helps relieve your headaches because, in that relaxed condition, the body can address the main causes and restore the blood vessels to normal.
3. Another way you can also have a headache treated is when you subject your body to a good and thorough massage, which helps to stretch the muscles and free the blood pathways in the blood vessels that may be clogged up by fat deposits, which may cause the swelling of the vessels.
Body massage gets the vessels back to normal when the tissues are warmed from the effect of the massage, and more chemical substances are released to correct the things responsible for the headache.
So, you should try to have your body massaged regularly. Meanwhile, discuss this with your doctor for more proper guidance.
4. Using some oils that are beneficial to the body can also help to treat headaches because of the Omega-3 fatty acids that attack free radicals and stop their work on the blood vessels of the brain.
It is not worth seeking more advice from your medical doctor on the oils that are suitable for your body and overall health.
