Need help asap please. I have a horrible headache . Like I'm almost in tears . I took ibuprophen like an hour ago and it didn't help at all. I just got bc powders. But I'm wondering is it ok to take since I just took ibuprophen. I am working until 10.and really can't afford to leave because I want to take my kids to their first ever zoo trip next weekend. I feel so bad. Someone please tell me how to get rid of a bad headache fast.this headache has me throwing up and in pain all the way down my neck but mainly in my temples and very back of my neck.
