If you have an occasional headache, taking an over-the-counter medicine like acetaminophen, aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen can help relieve the pain. However, if you are having frequent headaches, I would recommend seeing your primary care physician to determine the cause of the problem. While most headaches are due to minor conditions such as sinus problems, it is best to make sure that the headaches are not a sign of something more significant.
