Pain relievers may seem like a quick fix for headaches, but overuse of them for more than 10-15 days a month can actually make things worse.
As reported by the Hindustan Times on Tuesday, New Delhi neurologist Dr. Rahul Chawla said that anyone who uses painkillers excessively should stop immediately and consult a neurologist to find out the real cause.
He explained that the brain becomes accustomed to the drugs, so pain relievers only make the body feel normal, but can cause headaches, liver and kidney damage, and even make headaches more frequent and severe.
