Patients with headaches can use ginger slices to repeatedly rub their foreheads to have a relieving effect on the headache. Headache can be caused by many factors, for example, wind-cold can cause headache symptoms. Ginger is a Chinese medicinal preparation that has a cold-repelling effect, so it can be used for wind-cold headaches. If the patient has a headache caused by wind-cold, it is recommended that the patient rub the forehead with ginger to relieve the headache. Patients can also boil ginger into hot water and drink it while it is hot, which will also relieve headache symptoms. If the patient’s headache is caused by fire and hyperactivity of liver and Yang, it is recommended that the patient should not use ginger to rub the forehead, as it will aggravate the headache.
