Get checked: If your headaches do not respond to pain medicines like tylenol (acetaminophen) or motrin, then it would be good to get checked out by a doctor. You can also try nasal decongestants , mucolytics, or rubbing some Vicks on your forehead. But if your headache does not respond to these or if you pain is severe, it is probably better to get checked.
