Hi, My mother is facing constant headache since a week and it is quite severe. She feels better whenever she eats some pain killer, but after sometime it repeats again. I am not sure what to do in such case. Please suggest.

Hi..... Self-care measures can help ease the pain of a headache. Try muscle relaxation exercises. Relaxation may help ease the pain of a headache. Relaxation techniques may include progressive muscle relaxation, meditation or yoga. Get enough sleep, but don't oversleep. Get an adequate amount of sleep each night. It's best to go to bed and wake up at regular times, as well. Rest and relax. If possible, rest in a dark, quiet room when you feel a headache coming on....
