Travelling always gives me a massive headache
I have just come back from a road trip and I am feeling as if I have been crushed under a truck.
I don't know why this happens to me. I love travelling whether by car, bus or aeroplane. I don't mind packing luggage (unpacking is a different issue, though) and I love exploring our own country with my children .
While on road , I enjoy looking at passing scenery, the roadside shops, mosques, restaurants and other landmarks that dot the landscape. We listen to radio sometimes but never loud music. I am a bit wary of eating food from roadside vendors and try my best to avoid using public toilets but still overall I enjoy travelling very much.
But at the end of the journey , I usually suffer from massive headaches. It feels like a rod is being hammered into the back of my skull and forced down my spinal cord. I usually take high potency painkillers to deal with it but somehow it leaves me feeling very battered and bruised for the next 24 hours.
If I have to visit relatives in other cities, I am not in the best of conditions and I feel bad about it.
I thought people who hated travelling or suffered from stress arrive at the destination feeling weak and tired but then why do I?

I love long journeys, I don't eat on the way unless its very dry snack cuz public washroom and I don't mingle well, when I eat well early before traveling I will be well, but if I don't eat at all I can even vomit my tongue and the headache as well, I know what you mean

I can relate . mine is whenever am travelling I tend to smell petrol which in turn leads to me vomiting everything I ate. so I don't eat whenever am planing a trip.

I have no such issues but was wondering if you covered your ears while on the move may be that could help. I feel it is the pressure of the breeze that could be the culprit. Just a thought.

I hate to sit too long in the bus or plane or train. It makes my butt pain!
