This one is probably well-known drug as a wrinkle remover, but it turns out the magic toxin is also effective to relieve headaches.
"Botox can make the muscles that are contracting due to headaches to relax," said Traci Purath, MD, as medical leaders in the Comprehensive Headache Care, at Wheaton Franciscan Medical Group, located in Franklin, Wisconsin.
"These drugs block the sensory nerves that transmit pain messages to the brain, and can relieve tension in forehead and back of the neck," said Traci. About 8 injections, which feels just like a pinprick, enough to ease the pain in the head.
The effect was only felt about 8-10 days after injection. This treatment is recommended, but not more than 3 months.

If you experience frequent headaches and require treatment on a regular basis, then the sport is a way. "When you're active, you increase your stamina, reduce stress, and can sleep more soundly," said Jan Brandes, MD, assistant professor at Vanderbilt University neurological clinic.
"The harder the exercise, such as jogging, brisk walking, swimming, the more lost the pain caused by tension in the head. However, if you experience a migraine, this kind of rigorous training will only make things worse, so get to know a good type of headache you.
Water

Caffeine
Besides can make eyes tired to stay awake, coffee has turned out another advantage, which caffeine can control the pain of the head.
In addition, caffeine can also facilitate the absorption of migraine drugs. Not only that, caffeine is also able to curb attacks of headache with interesting / pursed blood vessels.
However, even so, for some people, caffeine can actually cause headaches instead. So consumption carefully.

Taking the time to sleep for 8 hours may seem rare, especially if you are classified as busy. However, sleeping too much or too little can cause headaches.
The human body requires at least 7 hours to recharge up to re-fresh, and headaches could be lost because of it. Try to sleep and wake at the same hour every day.
