Headaches after school.

[Deleted]

Anyone had these weird,light headaches after school? Really started to annoy me now. It would be great to know how to avoid and get rid of them.

Pop a Tylenol.

Wait, you were wanting some form of "natural" remedy, right?

Sleep enough, if you aren't already. Also, headaches can become chronic because you expect them to happen.

Dehydration is the number 1 cause of headaches, drink water not sugary crap.

stop going to school, play vidya games, problem solved.

Drink more water, and Less caffeine.

Tylenol is bad for your liver. Are you drinking enough water? Getting enough sleep?

[Dispersedshadow]

Headaches can be symptoms of serious conditions, so this is something best discussed with a medical professional. Perhaps starting with your school nurse (if they still have those).

Hopefully it's something non-serious and easily relievable.

Lack of sleep or dehydration or both would be my guess. Remember to drink and eat during the day.

How much water do you drink on a regular day?

This is going to be a little weird, but trust me on this.
What color is your pee? The darker / yellower it is, the more dehydrated your body is. Thirst is not a proper indicator of how dehydrated you are.
Since your body is 60% water, lacking in water can cause a lot of problems - headaches are obviously included in there. Depending on your gender you want to drink between 2 and 3 liters a day (the 8 8-oz glasses is not quite enough but a good way to remember what you need to drink).

Tylenol hides the pain but doesn't eliminate the underlying cause. Also over time it damages your liver, something you're going to damage plenty in college - you don't need a head start.

If you are getting proper sleep and proper hydration, then you need to see a doctor because the headaches could be an indicator of a major problem you want to clear up asap.

I'm pretty sure it is just your brain trying to make room for the new stuff it learnt during the day!

Don't pay so much attention in Class so that your brain doesn't get all filled up.

Do you wear glasses and do you wear them only when your go to class?

It not only depends on gender but also the heat of his location ie how much he loses. And yea, headache pills should be taken together with water as to relieve the pain while also try to remove the reason for the headache.

You post wasnt that weird... Though its important to say that he shouldnt be looking at his morning urine because its not indicative in that regard.

Tylenol is bad for your liver.

Isn't that a rather long-term side effect? I don't think popping a tylenol once a day or so will hurt your liver, unless you're doing it for years at a time (especially given that tylenol is designed to be taken several times a day).

This isn't a medical forum and you shouldn't take anything anyone says here for fact. Go see a doctor.

(Btw, I'm a doctor. I didn't go to 12 years of med school to be called Mr.)
