Migraine Minute: 5 Headache Relief Misconceptions

Oct. 9, 2012 - PRLog -- 1. Over-The-Counter Medication Treats The Cause Of Your Headache
It should be criminal that drug companies are hiding from you the fact that headache-relieving drugs don’t actually target the real cause of your headaches. Here’s the real deal… these pills cover up your headache by simply disabling your brain’s ability to feel your headache. That’s why your headache comes back when the pills wear off!
2. Headache Medication Can’t Harm You
One thing many headache sufferers don’t know is that the pills they take are not 100% safe. In fact, a lot of the side effects you may experience are far worse than the headaches you’re trying to cover up.  The side effects are not worth the measly four hours of relief from headaches. You see, the way these pills disable your ability to feel headaches is by disabling a little hormone in your body that acts like a messenger to your brain.
3. Headaches Go Away On Their Own
Albert Einstein had a saying “The definition of insanity is doing the same things and expecting different results.”
4. All Doctors Know How To Treat Headaches
There’s a saying that goes something like this…”If You’re A Hammer, All You See Is Nails.” Hammers hit nails, Medical Doctor’ s prescribe medication.Expecting a different approach from your medical doctor will only lead to disappointment.
5.  Your Problem Is Always Where Your Pain Is
Even though you may be feeling your headaches in your sinuses or on the top of your head, that doesn't necessarily mean that is where the cause of the problem is located.
