Don’t Forget Your Medication and Prepared for A Change in Climate or Altitude
If you use over-the-counter drugs or you take prescribed drugs to reduce migraine [6] pain, it would help to take them with you anytime you’re traveling or going on vacation. Ensure you are with a dose during your trip. It is important to only use migraine drugs as prescribed by your doctor because taking them more than 10 days out of a month can result in more tension headache attacks. Contact your healthcare provider to learn how to safely remove drugs out of your system.
If you are traveling to a location where there will be extreme climate change, it is important to take the right precautions to protect yourself. You may experience a severe tension headache if you move to a place where there will be excess humidity, heat, and changes in barometric pressure. Also, your tension headache may worsen if you go deep-sea diving or skiing or snowboarding at high altitudes. It is important to stay inside or avoid extreme physical activities to avoid triggering your tension headache.
