What are some cures or helps for a headache caused by paint smell?

They are painting my school building and the smell is strong and I have gained a headache from it. I have taken panadol and have been drinking loots of water. Please help!

1. hey

talk to your teacher, tel lthem bout the problem, ask if she/he can talk to the principal or whoever to ask if they can panit after school because i am sure its not just you getting the headaches

2. It is not acceptable that you would suffer from your school being painted. Ask your classmates how they feel. They likely share the pain. In any case, you should request to not be subject to such things.

Get fresh air and take aspirin OR paracetamol, whichever works best for you.

Good luck!

3. the toxins and fumes in paint has the potential to get you high. most likely the fumes are doing that but just giving you headaches. talk to your dean or principal or teacher or whatever grade your in, and bring it up. this could cause severe brain damage, if the headaches get worse see a doctor.
