Has anyone dealt or face problems related to headaches due to stress. I am currently facing light headaches since many days and don't know how to deal with it. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Get an eye checkup. If you wear or don't wear glasses. It could be a power change.

Headaches due to stress - esp if it is the throbbing types can also be related to a jump in BP. Might help to take a break, go for a walk and detach for a bit. If that doesn’t help, a Crocin generally will do the trick. But get your Bp checked or better still get a home measuring device (they are quite affordable nowadays) to check when you have headaches and correlate.

PS: dehydration also causes headache. Drink water in a measurable way - like 1L bottle twice.

@loud-glass-33663 were you facing similar issues? were you able to find a correlation between BP and headaches?

• Are you sleeping well? • Are you working out or atleast being physically active? • Have you taken a break from work recently? • Are you pursuing any hobby or activity unrelated to work? If anything is no, then please correct that first. Also it is a negative reinforcement cycle that is you expect it to come and it does come and the loop goes on. So break it for couple of days and you will get your confidence back and your body naturally fights better. Also taking medicines help you more if you take it early when headache starts.

@bright-finland-50439 Yes. For me, stress usually resulted in higher BP which resulted in headaches (the throbbing kinds). I have a machine at home - and I could correlate.
