Additional Information

Home Treatments:

Conservative treatment of a primary headache can range from simply resting, to eating a carbohydrate or sugary food, to muscle relaxing exercises to taking common non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen or Aleve.

Professional Medical Treatments:

A professional may prescribe the use of indomethacin, an anti inflammatory drug or a blood pressure drug such as propranolol to thin the blood. If the headache is believed to be a secondary headache, an MRI scan will used to help determine the underlying cause of the headache. If an underlying cause is found, treatment may be more specific and complex.

Physical Therapy and Exercises:

If the headache is a non serious primary type, generally reducing the impact of the exercise session will help recovery. This may simply involve reducing the intensity of the exercise, or cutting back on reps, sets and weights. Extending the warm up and cool down session may also be advised. Breathing exercises, and muscle tensioning-relaxing exercises can prove useful.

Exercise Techniques to Prevent Injury:

Prevention of exercise related headaches largely involve factors that do not include precise exercise techniques. Eating a small snack before exercising will help keep blood sugar levels up. Staying hydrated will prevent headaches caused by dehydration. Properly warming up and cooling down before and after an exercise bout will allow the blood flow to slowly increase and decrease properly, preventing the onset of a headache.
