Comments on: How to Prevent a Sinus Headache

on 6/15/2007 Besides from taking madicine to release your headach, one thing you should do is not drinking ice, and eating much spicy food. It does help you.

on 6/14/2007 Keep in mind that in today's vernacular, any headache that's located above or behind the eyes is called a "sinus headache". 80% of these headaches are vascular meaning they arise from blood vessels covering the brain or cranial nerves (migraine, atypical migraine, etc.) and are not truly centered in the air cavities we call sinuses. It's important to distinguish as the treatment's totally different.

on 12/8/2006 Prevent Sinus Infections: It is very effective to flush your sinuses with salt water at the earliest indication of sinus problems. This can be done by "inhaling" a bowl of warm salt water or using a neti pot. A neti pot is much friendlier that inhaling the bowl of salt water.

on 11/22/2005 I have been plagued with sinus headaches and sinus congestion for 2 years. I used to have to take an allergy medicine and a nasal decongestant to get rid of my headaches every day, if that even helped. I would even suffer from severe brain fog, where I couldn't think clearly or concentrate. A month ago I started eating a bar of chocolate about every day and I haven't yet gotten a headache, felt congested, or felt brain fog! It's great. I'm really not sure how it could be working. I truly don't care, as long as I feel good. Now I don't worry if I'm going to wake-up tomorrow feeling like I can't think or dreading the day.

on 6/11/2007 It is also good to rinse your mouth with hydrogen peroxide & water. You don't need to use much if you have a healthy mouth. Simply 5 ml(1 teaspoon) of peroxide & 1/4 cup of water should help. Check with your dentist.
