Headache Medication Needed

Extra Strength Tylenol isn't helping my tension headaches (start in the neck). Any suggestions for another OTC medication that is easy on the stomach but stronger than Tylenol?

Thanks

I take 3 Advil for my headaches. The recommended dose of 1 - 2 does nothing for them. It doesn't bother my stomach but I'm not sure if it's easy on the stomach.

I can't tolerate Ibuprofin, it makes me nauseous. For any pain that Tylenol won't touch, I use Extra Strength Bufferin. Some people can't use aspirin, but I can tolerate this fine--and it's great for pain.

It a matter of trying a few different things until you hit on the one that works while not causing side effects. Hope you feel better!

aleve (naproxene sodium) is a pretty good pain killer------i think i used to take 2 instead of 1. OTC meds don't work for my tension headaches. i used darvocet for alot of years, but i have been on norco since my hysterectomy last year.

do you get tension headaches alot? i have had them for so long that i have lost the natural curve in my neck---the tense muscles caused it, i guess. i am just starting some exercises to try and help my neck and head stop hurting all the time. don't let yours get this bad!!!!!

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.
