Can Your Headache Be Related To Kidney Disease?

To be frank, I am not afraid of the disease. I am afraid of the various types of medications available for the disease. I am not afraid of the effects of the disease. I am afraid of the after effects of medicines prescribed by the doctor, for the disease. There is a mushroom growth of medications for a specific disease.

"The best thing a person with chronic headaches can do is get off the painkillers," says Paul Duckro, associate professor of psychiatry at St. Louis University. "In our studies, two-thirds of the chronic headache sufferers benefited from the withdrawal of medication."

Why then you feel relieved form the headache, temporarily, when you take these pain-killers? It is because the headache becomes temporarily drug-induced. Its actual effect is that it does not reduce pain, it produces pain. You know, plenty of specialists are unanimous in their view that pain-killers can not get you permanent relief from headaches. But they may cause permanent destroy definitely.

You can well understand the implications of the above statement. To an extent, it is better to bear the torment of the headache, than to invite diseases by taking pain-killers. You don't know when these pain-killers turn killers!

Now the opinion is unanimous, that all painkiller drugs have side effects, & these are not minor ones. Such serious diseases are lightheadedness, vomiting, extreme stomach pain, kidney destroy, liver destroy, dizziness & internal bleeding.

Over the counter medications for headache can be termed as hazardous. According to Dr William Bennett, Head of Nephrology at Oregon Health Sciences University, USA such painkillers are responsible for over twenty % of the 125,000 cases of the final stage kidney diseases in that country.

Give importance to your headache but do not give much importance. That is to say, as soon as you get the headache, don't rush to painkillers. Seldom take the repeat dose. By doing so, you are repeating the error that you have committed.

The specialist advice in the treatment of such headaches is to have a regular jogging schedule. Your metabolism needs revision. Such walks done everyday for about 45 minutes will solve your issues related to stress, kidney disease & heart disease.

Headache is not the reason for kidney disease. But, wrong treatment for headache, can land you up there.
