All serious causes of my new headaches have been ruled out, now need (non medication) solutions
Symptom: moderate to severe daily headaches behind my eyes after reading (mostly computer but phone, books, too - any up-close focusing), causing fatigue and making me unable to work, 2 weeks duration so far although my routine hasn't changed. No nausea or auras or anything else. Pain is like a dull ache, not throbbing.
Result of Doctor Visits: Full exam showed no neurological problems indicating serious brain issues. Not migraines. I wear glasses but no significant change in vision rx warranting new lenses.
Question: How do I stop these ASAP so that I can work again (have taken 4 days off)? Doctor said regular use of NSAIDS or Tylenol will cause a rebound headache and GI issues long term - yikes . I've tried brisk walks, lots of water intake, hot showers, massaging my temples - all of given only temporary relief. And yes, I take regular breaks when doing computer work. Open to trying almost anything at this point. |
