Headaches

[siananne]

Does anyone here get headaches only one sided? I've had them for 6 months ct is all clear it's not every day now and it feels like a tight band I'm seeing a neurologist on Monday but wondered if anyone could help

Mine start one sided, for sure.

Where do you get the tight band?

I tend to get extremely sore headaches that tend to be focused on the right above my ear, never thought about getting it checked out.

It goes from the back crown and sometimes front wondering if this is anxiety related

[Hidden in reply to siananne]

Mione start at the base of myskull up round the ears round to the front over the eyebrows, then all hell breaks loose.

Mine are caused by anxious tension, or heavy exertion, making the muscles tense right up.

I find putting a hotwater bottle on the back of my neck helps or ice pack if its caused by over exertion.

Also there are some exercises that can help to, standing with back straight and hands behind your back clasped, take your head right down pointing the eyes towards your knees, stay for 30 secs then slowly release.

also, with head pointing forwards take the head to the side towards the shoulders, 30 sec hold again and release.

Also, with head pointing forwards turn head to look at each side in turn holding for 30 secs.

Hope it helps

Does your occur regularly do you have to keep massages up xx

[siananne]

Does it occur regularly and this help ease it??? Xx

Me too exactly the same. Taking beta blockers has reduced them dramatically. Having a massage is good or cranial oesteopathy. Also stretching, hot wheat bag, baths and relaxation. Also watch if yo are gritting your teeth and drink plenty of water. X
