Description
This handbook aims to be the headache patient's first line of defence. Written by two experts in the field, Conquering Headache describes the different types of headache, their causes, and their treatment - all in easy-to-understand, non-medical terms. Topics covered include medication and non-medicated treatment, nutrition, exercise, sleep habits, behavioral techniques, and pain management. Additionally, it offers practical guidelines for medication use, such as dosages, side effects, and limitations on use. From cover to cover, Conquering Headache arms patients with the facts they need to take control of their condition.
