Painkillers When Headache

A remarkable note is here. The gist is that research shows that the main cause of chronic headaches is excessive use of painkillers.
In several articles I have argued for the first time, finding internal solutions to fall back on external solutions. Very briefly, the key idea: in many problems there is no need for solutions from outside the 'system' (the organization or individual) to find because there are solutions within the system are located. The article to which I refer gives examples. The benefits of internal over external solutions are great solutions. One of those advantages is that solving the problem through an internal solution leads to independence. Conversely said applying an internal solution does not make you dependent.
This principle, I have hitherto always been described in relation to human performance and organizational performance. Several times I have wondered how far this principle is applicable in particular whether it applies to the use of drugs. I wondered in particular whether swallowing a paracetamol for headache was less wise than the resolution of the headache by the body. Because I am not a doctor, I have so far but not dared to make propositions on this subject or even to formulate hypotheses (there are too many quacks and doctors, I wonder). But now there is this research that shows that the main cause of chronic headaches is excessive use of painkillers. It seems quite an indication that the internal principle solutions are broadly applicable than I thought.
