Remedy

Headache and body ache

Water, shade, willow for an adult, mint on the brow. July headaches are often heat and salt.

  1. Drink. Eat a pinch of salt if you have been sweating.
  2. Peppermint tea and a mint cloth on the forehead.
  3. Willow decoction or the ibuprofen in the kit — adult, and not both stacked with aspirin.
  4. Dark room. If it is the worst headache of their life, or one-sided weakness, that is stroke watch — see Illness.

Worst-of-life headache, droop, confusion: not herbs.
