I have head aches frequently. A busy day can cause a head ache for the entire next day. I take 1000 mgs of Tylenol (acetaminophen, paracetamol). If my head ache is bad, I add 1000 mgs of aspirin at the same time.

Lately, most of my head aches are between the temples and forward, sometimes with a pain between my eyes. I can relax and reduce the intensity sometimes. Other times, my only escape is to sleep.

For me, a busy day can be as simple as intense conversation after 8:00 pm or a lot of online posting or any other common stressor.

I rarely use anything stronger than Tylenol/aspirin, maybe once a year (Tylenol w codeine).

I have been dealing with Post Concussion head aches since 1995 (12th concussion) or so. Neuro tried a few meds that did not help, just made me feel confused.

I have found that I need to pace my activities through out the day. Any intense peaks in activity will be problematic.
