A recurring headache can play spoilsport to a normal day at the office. Active! gives you quick-fix solutions to rid you of a pain in the ufffd head in 15 minutes flat!

Around 95% of headaches are classified as primary headaches, which are not caused by any underlying illness or disease.



Secondary headaches are symptoms rather than conditions and can be caused by things like the flu, or brain tumours, stroke and meningitis, While over-the-counter painkillers provide temporary relief, experts believe they can cause severe gastritis in the long run. Here are surefire solutions for relief from headaches:

Breathe in through your nose. Take a deep breath, until you can't breathe any more. Hold your breath for a few seconds. Now, puff out your cheeks with the air and slowly release the air out of your mouth. This will help release toxins in your body. Repeat10 times.

Drink a glass of lemonade or fresh lime juice with high concentration of salt, whichu00a0 can cure severe headache almost instantly.

A hot shower does wonders for stress headaches. Direct the hot water spray at your neck and shoulders. Let jets of water massage your sore muscles; this helps your muscles to relax and unknot

Fix yourself an herbal tea. Or else drink a few cups of warm water. Dehydration is one of the commonest causes of a headache.
