headache tablets - #17227
For the past few months, I’ve been getting frequent headaches that seem to come out of nowhere. Sometimes they’re mild and just feel like a dull pressure, but other times they’re so intense that I can’t focus on anything. They usually start in the afternoon, and I’ve noticed that bright lights and loud noises make them worse. I went to the doctor, and he told me that I might have tension headaches or mild migraines. He prescribed some headache tablets, but I don’t want to rely on painkillers every time I get a headache. I feel like they just numb the pain temporarily instead of fixing the real issue. That’s why I started looking into Ayurveda. Does Ayurveda have a natural approach to treating headaches instead of just taking headache tablets? Could this be related to stress, poor digestion, or an imbalance in my doshas? I read that Vata imbalance can cause tension headaches and Pitta imbalance can lead to migraines—how do I know which one I have? Are there specific Ayurvedic remedies that work as well as headache tablets? I saw that Brahmi, Peppermint, and Sandalwood oil are used for headaches—do they actually help, and how should they be used? Also, should I be making any changes in my diet or lifestyle to prevent headaches from coming back? If anyone has used Ayurveda to treat headaches naturally, what worked best? Did herbal treatments, yoga, or dietary changes make a real difference? I really want to stop depending on headache tablets and find a long-term natural solution.
